Customizable screenshot tool with quick settings shortcut and floating button
About this app
Adds a button/tile to the quick settings panel to take screenshots.
After install you need to add the button/tile to your quick settings and then grant the permissions to record screen captures and save images to the internal storage.
Features:✓ Take screenshots from the quick settings ✓ No root required ✓ Notification after a screenshot was taken (can be disabled) ✓ Immediately share, edit or delete a screenshot from the notification ✓ Edit the screenshot with the included image editor ✓ Floating button/Overlay button like a chat bubble (Android 9+) ✓ Use as assist app to take a screenshot (long-press the Home button) ✓ Only take screenshot of a specific area of the screen (long-press the tile) ✓ Delay taking a screenshot ✓ Store in any folder on any storage e.g. sd card ✓ Store in different file formats: png, jpg or webp ✓ Take automatic screenshots with apps like Tasker or MacroDroid ✓ Free, open-source, no advertising
This is a fork of "Screenshot Tile [Root]" but it does not require root.
Source code: github.com/cvzi/ScreenshotTile Original app: github.com/ipcjs/ScreenshotTile Open Source license is GNU GPLv3
Note: 🎦 When you take a screenshot, the "Google Cast" icon will appear in the status bar and it will be visible in the screenshot image. If you want to hide the icon, there is an explanation here: github.com/cvzi/ScreenshotTile#icon
Permissions:❏ android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE "Photos/Media/Files and Storage" This is required to save the screenshot files on the internal storage of your device.
❏ android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE Since Android 9/Pie this permission is required to take screenshots. It basically means that this app can run without showing itself. However the app will always show a notification when it is running.
Automatic screenshots:If you want to automate screenshots from another app, e.g. MacroDroid or Tasker, you can find a step-by-step guide here: github.com/cvzi/ScreenshotTile#automatic-screenshots-with-broadcast-intents
Hiding the app icon:In the app settings you can hide the app icon from your launcher. You can still access the app by long pressing the tile in your quick settings. Unfortunately, Android 10 does not allow hiding an app anymore.

Installation Guide
Open Settings on your Android device
Go to Security → Unknown sources (or Install unknown apps)
Enable "Allow from this source" for your browser or file manager
Open the downloaded APK file from your Downloads folder
Tap "Install" and wait for installation to complete
Launch the app from your home screen
Make sure to re-enable Unknown Sources restrictions after installation for security.
How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be com.github.cvzi.screenshottile is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 2.21.2 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Screenshot Tile (NoRoot) first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Screenshot Tile (NoRoot), and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets Screenshot Tile (NoRoot) do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
