Where are long Screenshots saved on iPhone?
As full page screenshot has large file size, they are saved as PDF files rather than PNG file format. You can access them by going to the ‘Files’ app. Open the location where you saved your screenshot and tap on the PDF file to open it.
As mentioned earlier, the long screenshot feature on iPhone is only available for Safari, Chrome web browsers, and the Apple mail app. If you try taking screenshots on Whatsapp, iMessage, or any other apps on your iPhone, this method won’t work.
