Like all Android phones, it is easy to take the active screen on a HTC phone. Here, there are 3 ways to take screenshots.

The second way to take screenshot on HTC is similar to those on other Android models. Just swipe to the second panel of the Navigation Bar, then tap the screenshot shortcut (a camera image).
Screenshot shortcut is similar to screenshot on iPhone via gestures.
The third way to take an active screen is using Edge Sense, which you can download from Google Play. With Edge Sense, you can customize its squeeze gestures to do different actions, including capturing screenshots.
Tap Settings, select Edge Sense, hit Set short squeeze or Set squeeze & hold action depending on what you would like, choose Capture Screen, and save the settings you made.
After that, you can open the screen that you want to capture and use the gesture or hold action you set to take a screenshot.

Step 1 Swipe to the second panel and tap the screenshot shortcut.
Alternatively, press Power + Home button on the navigation bar or Power + Volume down button meanwhile, like the first and second method in part 1.
Step 2 Tap Scroll at the bottom of the screen, and keep tapping Scroll until you complete the whole scrolling screenshot.
Step 3 Tap Edit to draw or enter the text on the screenshot optionally, and tap Share or Save to take the scrolling screenshot successfully.
Note: For taking screenshot on HTC, you need to download the HTC Screenshot Tool. The HTC Screen Capture Tool is the freeware to take screenshot on HTC phone. You can free download this application from Google Play, if it is not pre-installed on your phone.
