Take a Screenshot

You can take a screenshot directly on the hudl without installing any additional apps.

How To:


Hold down the Power button + Volume down button for a couple of seconds, you will then hear a camera click sound and the current screen you are viewing will be saved to a new "Screenshots" album.

    1. It takes a bit of practice to get it right, you kind of need to press the power button a fraction earlier..... took me a while to get it right.

  2. Thanks for this. You are right, it is very tricky and you have to get "the knack" of it. But it does work Alice.

  10. No tried and tried again with various combinations. I find screen shots very useful on an iPad but not on the Hudl

  17. Took my Hudl into Tesco store phone shop and they failed for over 20 minutes to take a screenshot of airline boarding passes. I tried again at home and it worked first time. The hardware/software combination cannot be very reliable.

  18. It's very hard but with practice I might get it right!

  19. It took me several attempts but then success with the screen shot shrinking away with no camera noise and then appearing in Gallary.
