Folks my mom bought a phone with the volume and power buttons on the same side and drops the phone every time she tries to get a ss.

What alternate methods are there to get a ss.

It is a Samsung A05s I believe. Would appreciate any help, thank you folks.

I'm not sure how different the interface is on OneUI, but on my Pixel when I swipe up and hold on an app to open the App Switcher, there is a button below the app that takes a screenshot of just that app.

I don't remember when it was first introduced, but it is a feature of stock Android, so it should be present in some capacity on most Android phones.

That probably won't suit her but I really appreciate the advice, thank you
