I just upgraded my iPhone 16 to iOS 26.0.1. Now, taking a screen shot is a hit-or-miss proposition; often times the screen shot doesn't engage. Anybody else experiencing this?

To take a screenshot make sure you’re simultaneously pressing and holding the up volume button and the side button (power button). If that fails to produce a screen shot you can try a forced restart. If after the forced restart you still cannot produce a screenshot, please contact Apple Support.
You need to have Apple perform diagnostics on your iPhone. It can be done in person at an Apple Retail Store or at an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can also contact Apple Support and request remote diagnostics.

No.
What do you mean by engage?
Settings, General, Screen Capture, you have in ios26 a new option Full Screen Previews, is that what us troubling you?
you can also use various accessibility features like double back-tap to take screenshot.
By 'not engaging' I mean that when I press the two opposing buttons on the phone to take the screen shot, nothing happens. If I lock the phone and then re-open it, screen shot works.
