How to stitch screenshots together on iPhone

iPhone has no one-tap way to stitch screenshots, and the Photos app can't merge them. You can stack them with the Combine Images action in the Shortcuts app, use a stitching app that lines up the overlapping parts, or skip stitching by capturing one long screenshot while you scroll with OneScroll.

Option 1: Combine Images in the Shortcuts app

1. Open Shortcuts and create a new shortcut.
2. Add Select Photos and allow selecting more than one.
3. Add Combine Images and set it to combine vertically.
4. Add Save to Photo Album, then run the shortcut and pick your screenshots in order.

This is free and built in, but it only stacks the images as they are. It doesn't remove overlapping parts or the status bar at the top of each screenshot, so take each screenshot where the last one ended, or crop them first.

Option 2: A stitching app

Stitching apps look for the part two screenshots have in common and join them there. They work well when every screenshot overlaps the next by a few lines and nothing on screen changed in between. You still have to take all the screenshots first.

Option 3: Skip the stitching

If the content is still on your screen, you don't need separate screenshots at all. OneScroll captures while you scroll and joins the pieces as it goes.

1. Once only: add the Long Screenshot control to Control Center. Swipe down from the top-right corner, touch and hold an empty area, tap Add a Control, then search for OneScroll.
2. Open what you want to capture and stay where the image should begin. Open Control Center, tap Long Screenshot, and choose to share your entire screen.
3. Scroll down at an even pace. When you reach the end, tap the red recording indicator at the top of the screen and choose Stop.

A few seconds later the long screenshot is in Photos as one image, and you get a notification. Tap it to crop the start and end or to share.

OneScroll needs an iPhone with iOS 27 or later. Your first 5 long screenshots are free; after that a one-time purchase unlocks unlimited use, with no subscription. Everything is stitched on your iPhone and nothing is uploaded.

Tips for cleaner manual stitching

• Leave a few lines of overlap between screenshots, so there is something to match.
• Don't change text size, zoom or light and dark mode partway through.
• Wait for banners and pop-ups to go away before each screenshot.
• Take the screenshots in order. Photos keeps them sorted by time, which makes picking them easier.
