How can I take a screenshot on the iPhone?

Apple added the capability to capture a screenshot with iPhone OS 2.0. To take a photo of whatever is currently on the iPhone screen:

Press the home and sleep buttons simultaneously.

Click here for instructions on the iPhone X and later (no home button).

The screen will flash white and the shutter release sound will be heard (if the iPhone isn't in silent mode). The screenshot will be added to the camera roll.

hi,
It is very simple. I worked this out my mistake.
You press the home button (the middle button on the front of the phone) and the lock button (the button at the top of the iphone/ipod). You need to press them at the same time.
You will hear the shutter noise and the screenshot will be added to your camera roll in photos.
Hope this helped :)

Yes, it works.
Just tried on my iPhone 5 without any issue.

Cheers.
