One essential feature of modern smartphones is the ability to take screenshots, capturing an image of what is currently displayed on your Honor Watch 5's screen.
Although there are apps for this function, you don’t need to install any additional ones, as it’s already built into the MagicOS 8 operating system.
Taking a screenshot allows you to save a WhatsApp conversation, a Tinder message, an Instagram story, a Facebook photo, or a video frame directly to your Honor device's memory.

You can find the image gallery on the home screen. It typically has a photo or instant photo icon. Depending on the software version installed, your image gallery application might be Google Photos.

Open the image gallery, the images and photos will appear sorted by date, click on the capture that you just made on your Watch 5, and you will be able to edit it, trim it or send it to your contacts or through your preferred social network.
If you cannot use the physical buttons of the Honor Watch 5 because they are broken or you do not want to use them because it is a problem for you to press both buttons at the same time to take the screenshot, there is an alternative so you can continue taking screenshots without the power and volume buttons that we tell you about below:
