- Swipe Away: If you do nothing, or swipe the thumbnail to the left, it will automatically save to your Photos app.
- Share Directly: From the editor, you can also share the screenshot immediately via various apps and services.
This method is the standard and most reliable way to capture your screen on the iPhone 15, ensuring you can quickly save important information, funny moments, or anything else you see on your display.
