Method 1: Screenshot via physical buttons
The first method for taking a screenshot on your iPhone 13 is to use the physical buttons on the device. This method works on all iPhones, including older ones.
Steps to follow:
- Open the app or screen that you want to capture in the screenshot.
- Press and hold the Side button (the power button) on the right side of the device.
- Simultaneously press the Volume Up button on the left side of the device.
- Release both buttons immediately after hearing a shutter sound and seeing a white flash on the screen.
After taking the screenshot, you can find it in your photo gallery. To access it, open the Photos app and select the "All Photos" tab. The screenshot should appear at the top of the list of recent images.
This method is useful if you need to take a screenshot quickly and without having to search for settings or additional applications on your iPhone. However, you may find it difficult to simultaneously press two buttons if you have a busy or small hand. In this case, you can try the second method for taking a screenshot on the iPhone 13.
Method 2: Screenshot via AssistiveTouch
If the side button on your iPhone 13 is not working properly, you can use the AssistiveTouch feature to take a screenshot.
- Open your iPhone 13 Settings and select "Accessibility".
- Scroll down until you find "AssistiveTouch" and turn it on.
- Tap "Customize Top Level Menu" and add the "Screenshot" option.
- Now, when you want to take a screenshot, tap the AssistiveTouch icon on the home screen. Select "Screenshot" from the menu and wait for the screen to briefly flash white.
- To find the newly taken screenshot, go to the Photos app and select the "All Photos" album. The screenshot should have been saved there.
Using AssistiveTouch may seem a bit complicated at first, but once you have set up the custom menu with the Screenshot option, you can take a screenshot without any issues even if the side button is not working properly.
How to Find Saved Screenshots
After taking a screenshot on your iPhone 13, the file will automatically be saved in your photo gallery. To find it, follow these simple steps:
- Open the "Photos" app from your home screen.

Alternatively, you can use the search function in the Photos app to look for your screenshots. Here's how:
- Open the "Photos" app.
- Tap the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of the screen.

You should now see all of your saved screenshots on your iPhone 13. If you want to delete one or more screenshots, simply tap on the image to open it and then select the trash can icon at the top right of the screen. Confirm deletion and you're done!
