    No, here's the thing: everybody tried to help out.  I relayed what I found, that I had to click faster than before.  You're response of "All you who have NOT (yet) experienced this problem, and therefore felt it would be somehow helpful to respond as if we're all just dimwits who've lost the "skill" of pressing two buttons: It's not. Helpful. Take Apple's advice and Think Different~" was uncalled for and basically insulted everybody who attempted to help you.

     

    The device info is somewhat relevant, since the newer iPhone 7's don't have a home button, didn't know if that was your issue or not.  My solution (iPhone 6) was to do press and release quickly, compared to how I did it previously.  I had hoped it would be helpful to you, but apparently it was not.  I had come to this thread with the same problem you were having.  Somewhere along the way, I found that pressing and releasing the home button quicker than before worked as a solution for me.

    No, this does NOT work on my iPad Air. Pressing both buttons very fast and at the same time does work, but this is not as it should be - too easy to get the timing, even slightly wrong for it not to work. I use Assisted Touch to bring up the screenshot icon.

    Tom, yours has ALWAYS been my method... it only works sporadically now. What has worked on those occasions is pressing *absolutely* simultaneously, or Assistive Touch.

     

    I have noticed that the occasions my typical method (power, home) fails is often when I'm two-layers deep in a game or other app... For example: I'm in a bathroom scene in a game. I click the bathtub, then from that screen, I click the drain. Using my (power, home) method, I can screenshot the game title screen, the bathroom, and the bathtub... but not the drain.

    Saying someone's problem is not a problem because you don't have the problem, "It's the same as it ever was" "Nothing has changed" "Just press two buttons, what's so hard", is not helpful. I cannot be any more clear than that. If this does not apply to you, then don't worry about it.

     

    APPLE has officially recognized the problem. It exists. If you have not been affected, consider yourself fortunate.

     

    I will not be replying further to the Who's Insulting Who debate.

    When I turned Siri off, it worked much easier to hold home and power button simultaneously. A bit of a nuisance, but worked for me.

    Its a PITA..... try pressing the home button and the off button simultaneously ....it takes a bit of practice. Unfortunately one of many, many features I dislike in 10.0.2

    ...no problem

    simultaneous is NOT necessary

    I found this problem this morning, and this post really helps.

     

    But question is why Apple changing such basic human interface, like my wife couldn't find fast camera access after upgraded to iOS 10.

    Apple should keep building interface for consumers NOT for engineers, which Jobs fully understood in the past.

    SStreekbos. Hou Jean that my post helped?

    i Agree with you. I am getting fed up with all these so called renewals such most of the time are unnecessary or not helpful. these days I am afraid to install any new update. Problably getting to old for this "****".

    i Want a easy working device like the iphone was before.

    YOu our really need a week to get around all these new features and changes.

    AManx people are getting older and less flexible

    I had the same problem - first thing I did was use the Assistive Touch (Settings / General / Accessibility / Assistive Touch) and configured the Custom function there to take a screen shot.  Worked great, but extra steps to get there.  I also played around with the power / home button combination that *used* to work really well (pre IOS 10); I'm getting better at it but not yet 100% - I hold the power button and click the home button really fast as opposed to a "leisurely" click - when I don't click the home button fast enough it just acts like I hit the home button by itself.  Good luck, and practice practice practice!

    IOS 10 has reversed the sequence:

     

    We're all accustomed to holding down the power/sleep button then pressing home, but after the IOS 10 update, we now have to press and hold the home button and then press power/sleep. 

     

    Also, it needs to be performed quickly enough to avoid activating Siri while pressing the home button.

    Having "Rest Finger to Open" didn't work for me on my iPhone 6. Maybe due to poor dexterity? I end up, on several tries, getting Siri or home screen or lock screen or reboot. What has worked is General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch, which inserts a semi-transparent button icon onto the screen that, when touched, offers 6 options. Touch Device > More > Screenshot. All credit to Banadula, the person who suggested this solution.
