Take a Screenshot on iPad With a Home Button

Taking a screenshot on an iPad is straightforward if you have an iPad with a Home button, such as the earlier iPad Air and iPad Pro models, or an iPad Mini.

At the same moment, press and release the top button as well as the Home button on your iPhone. You’ll see a flash on the screen and hear the sound of a camera shutter.

The thumbnail appears in the lower left-hand corner of your computer screen. You have the option of tapping to view it instantly or waiting until later, as we’ll discuss more below. Waiting till later will result in the thumbnail sliding away without you having to take any action.
