An iPhone feature that allows you to capture an entire Safari webpage at once has been shared on TikTok.

The trick is so simple, many iPhones have said that they feel “embarrassed” that they have never stopped.

To take a screenshot of an entire page, including a comment thread, recipe, or article, simply open the link in Safari and capture the top of your chosen article.

Then open the screenshot by clicking on the small image on the left.

This will open the page where the screenshot can be edited, “Screen” and “Full Page” will appear at the top.

Select “Full Page” and the entire page will be available, with an overview showing the length on the right.

Then you can edit, crop and bookmark the page before saving it as a PDF on your phone.

The screenshot hack “works on any Apple device, but only in Safari”, according to a technical help.

‘What the! Don’t I have to film 200 times to get the whole article? Thank you very much!’ wrote a woman.

Step 5 – Touch the back of your phone “next to Apple” to capture new things on the screen

“I made an audible gasp when I realized what was happening here,” said another person after watching the video.

A recent hack on the iPhone showed how to capture the screen by touching the back of the iPhone instead of using the side buttons.

The little-known hack involves changing settings to allow screens to be captured quickly by simply tapping the back of the phone twice.

But the setting is only available on iPhone X and higher with iOS 14.

The feature was revealed on both Facebook and TikTok, where thousands enjoyed the new discovery.

To activate the feature, click “accessibility” in settings followed by “touch” before activating the “Touch back” button.

Once you’ve selected double or triple tap, click the “screenshot” option to complete the activation.
