New iPhone Screen Capture Feature

July 15th, 2008 @ 2:07 pm PDT

iPhone ScreenOne of the cool new features of the updated iPhone software is the ability to take a screen shot. If you hold the home button and then press the power button, the system will save a screen capture to your “camera roll” library. You can then email it or save it to your computer when you next synch, just as if it was a photo taken with the camera. I’m sure this will come in very handy for developers and debuggers.

And, of course, it gives us all a cool way to show everyone what we have on our iPhone home screens. Here’s mine. Nifty, eh?

    This is incorrect with iPhone 4s hold power button, not too long, and then press the home button. If you do it the other way Siri will open.

    Matt,
    I just tried this on my iPhone 4S and it still works if you press the home button and then the power button. As long as you do it quickly it will take a screen shot.
    If you hold the home button and pause for more than a second before pressing the power button, you are correct, it will activate Siri.
