Hiding date stamp when making a Screenshot

Hi, I make quick screenshots to send back and forth to social media of my art WIPS. These are clean on my Android, but my IPhone includes the data across the top, i.e. date stamp. Any way to turn the battery bar and date off? Thanks!

iPhone 7, iOS 12

Hi, KANoble,


When you take a screenshot, it’ll appear, briefly, in the lower-left corner of your screen before being saved to PHOTOS. If you’ll touch it before it disappears, it’ll open on your screen to be easily edited.


Just grab the upper corner of the image grid to bring it down to where the information bar is excluded and only your image remains.
