Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

How to take a screenshot of the phone screen? (Android, iOS)

How to take a screenshot of the phone screen? (Android, iOS)

From time to time I get the question "How to take a screenshot of the phone screen?" And I realize that I did not write an article about it at all, and I use this option every day. So I will explain that in this article for Android and iOS devices.

How to take a screenshot of the phone screen:

iOS – iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch

  1. Press and hold the Sleep / Wake button
  2. Press and release the Home button immediately
  3. Find the screenshot in Albums > Camera Roll

Be careful to do it all quickly and accurately.

Android

Screen capture on Android devices varies from phone to phone. But I will do my best to cover the majority. Finally, take a look at screen capture apps.

Android ICS (4.0) and newer (5.x, 6.x, 7.x)

Android ICS (4.0) i noviji (5.x, 6.x, 7.x)
  1. Press and hold the volume down key and the home key at the same time
  2. When the screen capture animation appears, release the keys
  3. You can view the image in the notification panel
  4. You can also upload a picture to the gallery

So, all phones with this version of the system and newer have a built-in screen capture option in the system itself, regardless of the device model. If you have an older system, read on!

Android 2.3 and older

Unfortunately, users of older Google devices have not implemented the screen capture option in Android itself, but some phone manufacturers have.

For example, if you have a Samsung, try pressing and holding the Home and Power buttons (Home + Power) for a few seconds.

It would be best to ask Google if your device with this and that system has the option of taking screenshots, e.g. "Samsung Galaxy S2 Gingerbread screenshot" or in Serbian "how to paint the screen of the Galaxy S2 2.3 phone", etc.

In any case, you can install the No Root Screenshot It application and use it to capture the screen regardless of the system version and phone model. You can find more screen capture apps in the Play Store, just make sure they require root. If you do not have a rooted device, look for those that say "no root", etc.

Look for pictures in the gallery, usually in the Images > Screenshot folder and the like.

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

I wrote an article on how to save internet traffic on an Android device and I suggested the Onavo Extend and Opera Max apps because they were the most popular back then. Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
