Step 1: Device Buttons [Easy and Recommended]

This is the most commonly and widely used by most of the Android device users. This is a quite traditional way and a full-proof method to take a screenshot on any of the Android devices easily.

• Go to the desired page or place on your Mi 9 phone which you want to capture.
• Press and hold the Volume Down and Power button altogether for a few seconds and it’ll capture a screenshot of that whole screen easily.
• Now, the preview image of your screenshot will appear at the top corner of your device screen for a few seconds. That means you’ve successfully taken a screenshot. [By tapping on that preview, you will open the screenshot and can edit/delete/share simply, no need to go to the gallery app]
