Screenshots are one of the basic functions we use in our daily life. Whether we are messaging or reading an article, screenshots are pretty useful in clipping out important information for future references or sharing. Seeing how screenshots are used by various consumers, scrolling screenshots in android is one such feature brands have added to their custom skins or OS.
As the name says, scrolling screenshot helps take long screenshots of the content on your smartphone’s screen such, as a messaging app or an article. Even though this feature has been a part of the skin or OS for many brands, some smartphones don’t have native support for scrolling screenshots which, is a surprise considering how easily it can be implemented on Android. So today, I’ll be guiding you on how to get the scrolling screenshot on your Android smartphone.
