Xiaomi adds partial screenshot feature in MIUI 12

MIUI 12 was first announced late last month in April by Xiaomi, followed by a dedicated global launch last week. Most of the eligible devices in China have been receiving beta builds for about a month. With each new release, the company seems to be fixing bugs and even adding new features like the new partial screenshot functionality.

MIUI was one of the first to introduce three fringer screenshot but it is getting the partial screenshot feature only now. For the unaware, Oppo incorporated this functionality in ColorOS 7 / Realme UI a few months back.

The partial screenshot in MIUI 12 was added in the May 25 (20.5.25) build. It can be enabled from Settings -> Additional Settings -> Button shortcuts -> Partial screenshot.

Once enabled, users will have to tap and hold three fingers to trigger the partial screenshot overlay. At the top, users get three options such as free-form, square, and circle to take screenshots. Whereas, at the bottom, there are options to start over, share, edit, and save.

Additionally, the partial screenshot overlay can be triggered by long-pressing the home button if the user is not using gesture navigation. That said, this feature is expected to be available in MIUI 12 stable releases for all the eligible / supported devices.
