Are three-finger screenshots enabled by default on all phones?

2024-08-29 32 0

No, three-finger screenshots are not enabled by default on all phones. This feature is typically specific to certain smartphone brands and models, and its availability and default settings can vary depending on the device's manufacturer, operating system version, and user interface (UI) skin.

Three-finger screenshot


Here's a breakdown:


Android Devices:


  • Xiaomi (MIUI): Many Xiaomi phones running MIUI have the three-finger screenshot feature available, but it might need to be enabled manually in the settings.
  • OnePlus (OxygenOS): OnePlus devices generally have this feature, and it is often enabled by default, but you can toggle it on or off in the settings.
  • OPPO and Realme: These brands, using ColorOS and Realme UI respectively, also offer three-finger screenshot functionality, often enabled by default.
  • Blackview and Oscal: Many Blackview and Oscal phones, including rugged phones, come with three-finger screenshot feature. Users need to manually enable the feature if they tried to use three fingers to make a screenshot (tried few times) but failed.
  • Other Android Brands: Some other brands may or may not include this feature, and if they do, it might not be enabled by default.



iOS Devices:


iPhones do not have a built-in three-finger screenshot gesture. Screenshots are typically taken using a combination of physical buttons or via the AssistiveTouch feature.



Samsung (One UI):


Samsung devices generally do not use a three-finger gesture for screenshots. Instead, they use methods like the palm swipe, button combinations, or the S Pen (on Galaxy Note series).



To sum up, while some Android devices, particularly from brands like Xiaomi, OnePlus, and Blackview, often have this feature, it is not universally enabled by default on all phones. Users typically need to check their phone's settings to enable or disable the three-finger screenshot gesture.
