Does scrolling screenshot work for your pixel 4a? If it does, is it something you have to enable in settings? Thanks!

I see. Cos I read that it was in one of the developer version and someone showed a screen recording of it working, though not very well. So just wondering. Thanks.

Google is still working on bringing scrolling screenshots to Android in a future release, even though it won’t arrive in 11. Sandler says to expect the feature in “a future API bump.” That implies Android 12, but we’ll just have to wait and see.

We’re still working on it, but It didn’t make the cut for R.
Rather than cranking out a quick hack that works for one or two hand-picked apps on a particular device, our goal on the platform team is to build this in a way that *any* app can plug into, whether they’re using a bog-standard RecyclerView or have implemented their own OpenGL-accelerated scrolling engine. We investigated this throughout the R timeline, involving folks from the window manager and System UI teams; you’ll be able to see this scrolling capture framework start to take shape in the AOSP source.
In the end, as with every Android release (and especially in this unusual year), we had to make hard choices about where to focus our limited resources; while this is a cool feature that we’re still really excited about, we decided not to rush it. Look for it in a future API bump.
