A screenshot, also known as a screen capture or print screen, is an image of what’s displayed on your device’s screen. It is useful for sharing what you see with others, such as when you need technical support or want to save a conversation from social media apps.
Screenshots are commonly used on smartphones to capture images of chats from WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook. They can also be used to save information from web pages or applications for future reference.
