Capture and Share Screenshots on Pcloudy Real Devices

Overview

Pcloudy enables testers to capture screenshots instantly during a live testing session on real devices, making it easy to validate UI behavior, document visual bugs, and collaborate with teams. With a single click, users can capture the current screen state of the device and access the screenshot directly from the session artifacts.

These screenshots can be viewed in detail, edited or annotated to highlight UI inconsistencies, layout issues, or visual defects, and then shared with developers or stakeholders for faster validation and resolution.

By keeping visual evidence tied to the exact test session and device, Pcloudy ensures clear communication, improved defect reporting, and quicker feedback loops across QA and development teams.
