Install Screenshot on Raspberry Pi #

Screenshot #

Simple interface for capturing screenshots, similar to the Windows Snipping Tool.
NOTE: This does not work on Wayland!! Use Flameshot.

To run: Menu -> Accessories -> Screenshot
To run in terminal: gnome-screenshot

Fortunately, Screenshot is very easy to install on your Raspberry Pi in just two steps.

1. Install Pi-Apps - the best app installer for Raspberry Pi.
2. Use Pi-Apps to install Screenshot.

Compatibility #

For the best chance of this working, we recommend using the latest 64-bit version of Raspberry Pi OS, which is currently version Trixie.
Raspberry Pi OS has 32-bit and 64-bit variants, both of which will run on most Raspberry Pi computers, including the Pi 3, Pi 4, and Pi5.
Screenshot will run on either PiOS 32-bit or 64-bit.
