Google Pixel 3a / 3a XL: How to Take a Screenshot / Screen Capture

I show you how to take a screenshot on the Google Pixel 3a and 3a XL. Another easy way to take a screen shot is by pressing and holding the power until you see a menu with power off, restart and screenshot. Tap screenshot 👍

You can just hold the power button and screen shot option is there too....but how to screen record??

[Meg.Armstrong]

You can also just hold the power button down and it will say power down, restart, or screenshot

Can you edit the picture and type in text on that edited pic?

How can I edit the screen afterwards? I mistakenly swiped it out from notification and cannot edit it. thanks.

Mine doesn't show me that little screen after I screenshot a picture

The power and volume button used simultaneously normally results (for me) in my phone being taken over by voice controll keypad for blind users. Very frustrating for me and difficult to undo. I would love for that to NEVER happen again. I have a Google Pixel 3a XL.

They had it where you could just hold the power button and when the options popped up, to power off, etc. screenshot was an option. They did away with that after this recent 11 update, which is freaking ridiculous. The absolute best Android screenshot option, was when it you could use the drop bar to grab a shot. On my old phone, you'd just swipe down, and screenshot was available, near flashlight, bluetooth, etc. tapped it, and boom. Was great because it only took a second, and could be done with one hand, easily. I was already annoyed that I lost that feature when I switched to a pixel, but had since got used to holding the power button by itself, and tapping screenshot that way. This whole, press two buttons, use both hands BS, is infuriating. Updates should consist of upgrades, NOT downgrades. They literally went back in time, instead of forward. Very disappointing.
