If you work on a computer, you know that it can be so much easier to describe what you're doing or looking at to someone by taking a screenshot. While it's an easy thing to do on phones, if you have a Mac, you may be wondering in the moment how exactly to take a screenshot (it's different than a PC's "print screen" option), especially if you recently updated your OS. Thankfully, it's also a breeze.
One important thing to note: if you've upgraded to macOS Mojave, you can use Shift-Command(⌘)-5 to take a variety of different screenshots or a video recording of the screen. However, if you haven't upgraded, Shift-Command-3 and Shift-Command-4 will continue to work in all versions of macOS.
