iOS 11 has a new screenshot tool and it’s awesome – CNET

The first time you take a screenshot after updating to iOS 11, you’re in for a surprise.

The process hasn’t changed. You still press the power and home button at the same time, which is followed by a screen flash. However, on the new OS, you’ll see a thumbnail of the screenshot placed in the lower left corner of the screen.

Take another screenshot and another thumbnail is stacked on top of the previous screenshot, and so on. There’s more to it than that, so let’s take a look.
