How to Take Scrolling Screenshots on iPhone

The most effective technique to record everything that is visible on the screen has always been to take screenshots. iPhones come with an inbuilt feature that lets users take screenshots of the screen. To capture the screen, simultaneously press the side button and the volume up button.

Even though taking screenshots with an iPhone is really simple, how about taking a screenshot that scrolls? Before iOS 17, you had to utilize a third-party software to take a scrolling screenshot with your iPhone; but, as of right now, everything that is shown on a screen, including webpages, PDFs, and emails, may be natively captured.

With iOS 17, you can take full-page screenshots, which are essentially the same as scrolling screenshots, and store them in the Photos app as regular photos. Thus, keep following the tutorial if you want to take screenshots of your iPhone while it is scrolling.

How to Take Screenshots of Your iPhone Scrolling (iOS 17)

You won’t need to utilize any third-party tools because iOS 17 comes with inbuilt support for taking scrolling screenshots of emails, documents, PDFs, web pages, and notes. We’ve included a few easy techniques to take scrolling iPhone screenshots below. Now let’s get going.

1. First, open the webpage you want to capture. Next, press the side button + Volume Up button simultaneously.

2. This will take a normal screenshot and show you a preview at the bottom left corner.

3. Simply tap on the screenshot preview. On the screenshot preview, switch to the Full Page tab on the top right.

4. You will now see the scrolling screenshot preview; you can scroll through the page by using the slider at the right.

5. Once done, tap the Done button at the top left corner to save the changes.

6. On the prompt that appears, select Save to Photos.

7. The scrolling screenshot will be saved as an image in the Photos app.

Note: You will only find the ‘Save to Photos’ option if your iPhone runs on iOS 17. On older iOS versions, select the Save PDF to Files option.

That’s it! This is how you can take a scrolling screenshot on iPhone.

How to View the Scrolling Screenshots on iPhone?
The scrolling screenshots you’ve captured will be saved as images on your iPhone. You will find the screenshots on the Photos app; however, they will appear in a different folder. Here’s how to view the scrolling screenshots on an iPhone.

1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone.

2. When the Photos app opens, switch to the Albums tab at the bottom.

3. On the Albums, find and tap on Panoramas. If there’s no Parorama, tap on the Screenshots.

4. You will find all your scrolling screenshots. Tap on the Scrolling Screenshot tile to view it.

Use a Third-Party App to Capture Scrolling Screenshots on iPhone
If you want more control over the scrolling screenshot you want to capture, you need to use a third-party app. Below, we have listed the three best iPhone apps to capture scrolling screenshots. Let’s check out the app.

1. Picsew
With the help of the iPhone software Picsew, you may combine multiple screenshots to produce a Scrollshot. The scrollshot feature on this one is dependent on screen recording.

In essence, you record the screen, then use the Scrollshot tool to create a scrolling screenshot out of the clip.

Picsew’s scrollshot has to be purchased. You may manually stitch screenshots using this program for free; it supports both vertical and horizontal stitching.

2. Tailor

Tailor bears a striking resemblance to the previously mentioned Picsew software. Your screenshots can be combined into a single, lengthy image using the iPhone app.

Because it isn’t overloaded with features, this one is simpler than Picsew. The Tailor iPhone app allows you to stitch leaderboards, articles, discussion threads, recipes & instructions, and more.

3. Zeta Stitch

Zeta Stitch is an intuitive iPhone app for taking manual screenshots. In order to obtain a scrolling screenshot, you must first launch the Zeta app and take sequential screenshots of the desired screen. The Zeta software will then automatically stitch the screenshots together.

The application makes an effort to stitch screenshots at 100% quality. In case you were wondering, the application also allows for both vertical and horizontal multi-image stitching.

Thus, to take a scrolling screenshot on an iPhone, follow these easy steps and use a few of third-party apps. Learn more
