Sometimes we'll ask you to send us a screenshot or screen recording of an issue you're experiencing, or a point that's under discussion on your device. This article tells you how to get this from your mobile device, whether it's an iOS or an Android.
If it's a desktop, simply record a video or take an image with your phone and send that to us, or follow these instructions.
