Android 12 Beta 3 is live and it\u2019s bringing scrolling screenshots features with it. That\u2019s according to recent reports, following the feature\u2019s discovery in the latest build.
\nSummarily, scrolling screenshots allow users to capture more than just what fits on a single screen. As shown in the images below, for instance, users can capture the full Settings menu on a single capture. That\u2019s as opposed to needing to take a screen video or multiple screenshots.
\nHow is Android 12 scrolling screenshots different from similar features elsewhere?
\nNow, that\u2019s all very straightforward. Especially since some companies, such as Samsung, have included scrolling screenshots for several years now. To use the feature, users simply take a screenshot via any of the usual methods. Then they\u2019ll see a new \u201cCapture more\u201d button in the resulting on-screen pop-up prompt. Specifically, placed all the way at the right-hand side of that prompt.
\nBut scrolling screenshots at the Android 12 level won\u2019t exactly work as it does with the OEM-specific versions of the feature either. And some users may find it a bit quirky, by comparison.
\nInstead of actively moving through to capture content either one page at a time or in a smooth-scrolling fashion, Android 12 captures the whole page or app in one go, when the \u201cCapture more\u201d button is pressed. Then, users need to use crop-like tools to whittle things down to just what they want to capture. Of course, Google also provides a magnified segment UI, as shown in the images below. That lets users keep track of exactly where they\u2019re presently touching. Which should prove useful, particularly on larger captures.
\nThis won\u2019t work everywhere either, for now
\nThe biggest caveat to Android 12 scrolling screenshots is that they don\u2019t work in every app. Or at least that\u2019s the case as of this iteration, in beta. As noted by the source, they won\u2019t, for example, work for websites such as those displayed in Google Chrome. Meaning that users can\u2019t simply capture a single screenshot and then scroll to capture the full site page. And that\u2019s also the case in other apps with scrolling, apparently.
\nGoogle may change that drawback before the final release, however. It may simply be the case that Chrome and other apps don\u2019t have access to or haven\u2019t implemented an API or other code to support the feature. Or Google may intend this to not get a fix until much later on \u2014 if at all.
\nAndroid 12 is presently expected to land in the fall of this year.<\/p>\n
