On the device, we all know how to take a screenshot. You just have to press the volume up button and the side button at the same time, and you’ll record exactly what’s on your screen. But if you want to capture what’s above or below what you can see on the screen, these kinds of screenshots might not be enough.
A full-page screenshot, also called a scrolling screenshot, lets you capture an entire webpage, document, or email without having to take multiple screenshots and then stitch them together. For instance, if you wanted to take a screenshot of a 116-page document in Safari, you would only need to take one screenshot.
