Screenshots have become an important feature in Android devices. Nowadays, every smartphone has the built-in feature to capture and share screenshots. Capturing a screen has been pretty much simpler nowadays. Just press the button combination on your smartphone and you have the shot of the screen automatically saved in your gallery. But the hassle today is to capture scrolling screenshots. Except some smartphones in the market, most of the Android devices don’t let you take long screenshots or the scrolling screenshots. Also, there are only few apps on the Google Play market that allow you to take multiple screenshots and manually stitch them together.
Long screenshots were first introduced by Xiaomi in MIUI. Now many smartphones like Galaxy S8, Gionee S6S, etc., have followed up the suit. However, this doesn’t mean that if the feature isn’t baked in the Android device, you cannot use it. You can use a third-party app to let you take scrolling screenshots.
Capture scrolling screenshots with some of these apps
#1 Stitch & Share: big screenshot
As a person fond of taking screenshots, I would recommend Stitch & Share. Unlike other apps, Stitch and Share automatically stitches the screenshots taken for you. Download and install Stitch & Share from market and start capturing scrolling screenshots. See the step-by-step video to start capturing scrolling screenshots on your device.
- Screenshot the screen to be captured

- Swipe down notification panel
- Tap the Stitch & Share notification

If the generated screenshot doesn’t align properly, you can always edit from within the app too. Download Stitch & Share: big screenshot here.
#2 Scroll Capture for Web
Scroll Capture for Web is another app you can try to capture scrolling screenshots of a desired webpage. However, this app works with only webpages. After you’ve downloaded and installed the application, follow the steps below to take the screenshot.
