One of the most frustrating problems when screenshotting is being unable to fit the entirety of the webpage in your screen grab.

To take screenshots of full webpages, simply open Safari and take a screenshot by pressing the volume button and lock button simultaneously.

Your screenshot will appear as a preview in the lower left corner of your screen – tap it and expand it to full view.

At the top of the page, you’ll have the option of viewing the screen – what was stationary on your device at the time of the shot – or the full webpage.


Click “Full Page” and you’ll have a scrollable, editable image to save, send and view – but note this trick only works on Apple’s Safari browser, not Chrome.

Grabbing images of full webpages can be useful for sending news articles – but when used in tandem with the next hack, can make filling out forms by pen and paper a thing of the past.

In the screenshot suite, you’ll see a plus sign next to your cache of writing tools – tap that plus sign and it’ll bring up a menu of document enhancement tools.

One of these tools is the Signature – add your custom signature with your finger and then apply it to your document with proper sizing and placement.

Your device will save your signature, eliminating the painful process of printing and mailing documents.

If you’re in a circumstance where taking loads of screenshots is necessary – say, tax season or college applications – it may be worth it to reprogram your iPhone.

In the Settings app, go to the Accessibility tab and then click Touch.

Here, you’ll be able to alter your device’s Back Tap capabilities – the function your iPhone executes when you double- or triple-click the Apple logo on the back of your device.

One of the choices is screenshot – making grabbing your screen’s image a one-finger task.
