Phone screenshot not working: how to fix it

If screenshots do not work, first make sure you use the right shortcut: on a Face ID iPhone press the side and volume up buttons together, and on Android power and volume down. Some banking and video apps block screenshots. If a button is broken, use AssistiveTouch on iPhone or the panel tile on Android.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
