I have a Galaxy A15 and it's hard to get a screenshot because I have to press the volume down and power button at the same time. I've tried apps but the ads are too much. There's no app for this with my Play Pass, and the swipe up just scrolls. Any suggestions?

@DeDe6 The palm swipe is from one side to the other not a swipe up. 

It should be in phone settings -> Advanced features -> Motions and gestures. It is "Palm swipe to capture". 

Another option is to use Samsung's One Hand Operation+. You can set it up so that screenshot is available from a "handle" on a side of the screen.

It didn't work. I mean the the palm swipe didn't work. I tried every angle, and all it does is move the screen, even from side to side šŸ˜ž

To add to @LongHiker's list, you can also pull down the quick panel and tap the screenshot icon.

Did you check the hodden icons too? If you turn on the palm swipe it will work (with some practice)
