    Tap Full Page

    Tap Full Page. The page now runs past the bottom of the screen, with a narrow preview of the whole page on the right. Apple says to drag your finger on that preview to see more. A crop button also appeared, next to Markup and Share.

    Pick a folder and tap Save

    Ours opened On My iPhone, with the Downloads folder (0 items) and Save as: Apple (United Kingdom) at the bottom. Open the folder you want and tap Save at the top right.

If you do not see this option

  • No Full Page tab? Apple puts Full Page in the screenshot editor and gives a whole webpage in Safari as its example. We only tried Safari. If another app shows only the Screen view, open the page in Safari and take the screenshot there. Source: Take a screenshot on iPhone
  • Only a small thumbnail appears? Apple says to tap the thumbnail in the lower left, then tap Full Page. Ours opened full screen straight away. See full-screen screenshot previews on an iPhone. Source: Take a screenshot on iPhone

If this does not work

  • Can't find the PDF in Photos? Apple says screenshots are saved to your photo library. Save PDF to Files puts the full page in the folder you pick instead; ours offered On My iPhone, Downloads. Open the Files app and go to that folder. Source: Take a screenshot on iPhone
  • No crop button? On ours the bar at the top had only Markup and Share while Screen was picked. The crop button appeared after we tapped Full Page. Apple says to tap it, then drag the handles, to save a smaller part of a full-page screenshot. Source: Take a screenshot on iPhone

About this guide

The screenshots are from our iPhone 17e with iOS 27.2, in Dark mode, taken on 27 October 2026 on apple.com in Safari. The editor showed 09:41 in its status bar.

Full Page is in the screenshot editor, which opens after you take a screenshot. Apple gives a whole webpage in Safari as its example.

Good to know
