How to capture a full page in Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro?

If you want to capture an entire web page on your Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro, you can do so if the operating system is updated to the latest version. Although this feature is not yet built into Android, Xiaomi has included it in its customization layer.

To take a scrolling screenshot of a web page, WhatsApp conversation, or any other app on your Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro, use the method described above. Once the screenshot is taken, it will appear along with the screenshot menu for a few seconds in the top-right corner.

Before the menu disappears, tap "Scroll" and wait while the screen scrolls to capture all the content.

If you want to stop the screenshot, press the button at the bottom of the screen. This is especially useful for very long or infinite scrolls, which could create an excessively large image and potentially slow down the system.
