New three-finger screenshot feature rolling out for Honor 90 Series

Honor is pushing a new software update for the Honor 90 series in China and it brings a new three-finger slide gesture screenshot feature to help users with a new screen capability.

According to the changelog, the new three-finger swipe screenshot feature lets you choose to set the three-finger swipe to take a screenshot as compared to the traditional option of taking a screenshot on the Honor phone including the physical button.

After the update, you can enable the feature from Settings > Accessibility, Quick Launch, and Gestures. From here select Screenshot. You will find the new feature underneath the options.

Other improvements:

Honor is also pushing new system stability and an October 2023 security patch for Honor smartphones in order to maximize the user experience.

Version detail:

This new update is rolling out for both – Honor 90 and 90 Pro users with MagicOS version 7.1.0.182 but these models need to download the following MagicOS version in order to download the new one.

• Honor 90 – 7.1.0.106, 107, 116, 127, 137, 152, 158, 163 and 177

The new three-finger gesture screenshot feature and other improvements for the Honor 90 series come in batches and may take some time to reach all of the users.
