Android: Instructions for Saving App Exercises, Feedback Screens, and Weekly Logs into a Permanent Image.



Once you complete an exercise, fill in a drinking feedback screen, or complete a weekly log, you may want to save its contents for future reference. An easy way is to take a screenshot of the page you want to keep. For example if you want to keep your decisional balance exercise responses, when you have a part of the screen displayed you want to capture you will need to do the following:



  1. Press the Power and Home buttons at the same time.
  2. Hold both buttons for a second, until you hear a shutter sound or see a visual indicating a picture has been taken.
  3. This can be awkward to get right. You need to hold the Power button slightly before pressing the Home button, then hold them both down.

This technique works with the following devices, along with pretty much any Samsung phone that has a Home button.


The Samsung Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy S6, Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S5, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S4 Zoom, Galaxy S4 Active, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Mega 6.3, Galaxy Tab 3 Pro, Galaxy S4 Mini, and Galaxy S3.


If you have a Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy S8, or S8 Plus, which don’t have a physical Home button, then the key combination is a little different:

  1. Press and hold the Power and Volume down buttons at the same time.
  2. Hold both buttons for a second, until you hear a shutter sound or see a visual indicating a picture has been taken.
  3. You need to hold the Power button slightly before pressing the Volume down button, then hold them both down.
