Capture iPhone Simulator Screenshots – Revisited – iPhone Simulator Cropper

iPhone project was looking for a tool to capture a series of screenshots for an upcoming application demo. In a Google search he first bumped into a post I wrote back in February of 2009: Capture iPhone Simulator Screenshots – Open Source Screen Capture Tool, a nice Mac tool for taking screenshots. As luck would have it, he also found another screen capture tool, one focused solely on iPhone screenshots: iPhone-Simulator Cropper.

iPhone-Simulator Cropper

This tool works by capturing the screen of the simulator runnning on your system. One really slick feature is the option to create captured images in two primary formats – first, a format suitable for upload to iTunes for your application screenshots – second, capturing a screenshot that is suitable for display on a website.
The following images show the iPhone-Simulator Cropper application, as well as two sample images captured:

2 Ways to Take Screenshots From Your iPhone

Ever wanted to know how to get great screenshots from your iPhone? It’s really easy. With the iPhone 2.0 software, you can simply hold down the Home button and press the top (on/off) button. The screen will flash and the screenshot will be saved to your iPhoto library. That’s quick and simple, for sure, but to actually use the screenshots on your computer you still have to transfer them.
You can also grab screenshots directly from your computer while plugged into your iPhone or iPod Touch. First, you have to download and install the iPhone SDK. Don’t worry, it’s free. You just have to have the desktop software tools that come with the SDK.

Open Xcode and open the Organizer window (from the Window menu). Plug in your iPhone or iPod Touch and in a few seconds, it should appear in the list of devices on the left. The first time you plug in your iPhone or iPod Touch you will be asked if you want to use that device for development.

Once you’ve got your device setup, just click the “Screenshot” tab in the Organizer window and you can capture screenshots from your device. You can capture literally any screenshot, including the lock screensaver, video as it’s playing, even as you’re holding a button down.
