Unfortunately, full-page screenshots are only available in the Safari app, so you cannot save full-page recaps of iMessage chats, social media feeds, or Slack DMs.If you attempt to take a full-page screenshot outside the Safari app, the 'Full Page' option will not appear on your editing screen, which is how you'll know you can't use it.

Besides saving the screenshot to your iCloud Drive folder, there are two other options: saving it to your iPhone in a folder named Pages or saving it to your iCloud Drive folder. Once you've decided where you want to save your file, all you have to do is click the save button.

Only saving full-page screenshots can be a bit tricky. Screenshots of full pages aren't saved to Photos like normal screenshots.Once you've edited a full-page screenshot to your satisfaction, click 'Done' in the upper left corner of the screen. The screenshot will be deleted or saved as a PDF to Files.

What is the best way to save a full-page screenshot?

Once you've completed your desired edits, you'll see two options above the image. Right above 'Screen' lies 'Full Page,' which allows you to choose the whole page as a screenshot. You can use the slider on your screen to navigate the length of your screenshotted webpage by clicking 'Full Page' to change your regular screenshot into a full page screenshot.

Upon clicking the preview, you will be taken to a screen with image editing options.

Look for the preview of your screenshot in the lower left corner of your phone's screen.

By simultaneously pressing the lock and volume up buttons, you can snap away.
