How to take a screenshot of a web page on iPhone

On iPhone, there is a handy feature that allows you to take screenshots of complete web pages.

When you visit a website, sometimes you want to keep a trace or simply want to share the information.
Whether it's written or visual, it doesn't matter, so why not take a complete screenshot of the web page you want to save.
On iPhone it's not very difficult but a bit boring because you have to scroll, scroll, scroll, so here is a simple method to make a full screenshot of the web page you are reading:

  1. Open Safari and go to web page you want to save
  2. On the page, take a classic screenshot (by simultaneously pressing the side button and the volume + button for models with Face ID, or by simultaneously clicking the side button and the main button for models with Touch ID)
  3. An image appears in the lower left corner, click on it
  4. Select Full page instead of Screen
  5. Press OK, and choose the recording mode from Photos and Files or Files only.

This method also works for taking screenshots of your emails in the Mail application, as well as your PDF documents in Files.

When it's done, you have a full PDF generate by Safari :)

To show you the result, I created a pdf file of Trump Lawyer Told Justice Dept. That Classified Material Had Been Returned article of The New York Times, you can view it here.
