IFRL You captured a great finish or a qualifying result on your PS5 and now you want it on your phone, to post it or to upload it to your league. Here's the fastest way, no cables.
The one-time setup
Install the PlayStation App on your phone (free, App Store or Google Play) and sign in with the same account you use on your PS5. That's it. The app and the console talk to each other automatically over the internet.
Taking the screenshot on PS5
Press the Create button (the one to the left of the touchpad on the DualSense controller). A quick press options menu appears. Choose Take Screenshot for a still, or you can grab the last stretch of gameplay as a clip. In Gran Turismo 7, do this on the results screen after a race, or on your car settings screen to capture your Performance Points.
Getting it to your phone
1. Open the PlayStation App on your phone. 2. Tap the Game Library or your profile, then look for Captures (recent screenshots and clips sync there automatically). 3. Tap the screenshot you want, then Save to your phone (the download or share icon).
Your capture is now in your phone's camera roll, ready to upload anywhere.
A few things worth knowing
- Captures sync on their own, but there can be a short delay. If a fresh screenshot isn't showing, wait a minute and refresh.
- Auto-uploaded captures have a storage limit and a time window on PlayStation's side, so save the ones you care about to your phone rather than leaving them on the console.
- Clips work the same way as screenshots, just larger, so they can take a little longer to sync.
For our drivers
This is exactly how you submit qualifying and how the commissioner captures results. Take your five-lap session screenshot and your car settings screenshot on the PS5, save both to your phone through the app, then open the qualifying page on the same phone and upload them. The site reads the numbers off the images; you just confirm. The rules for qualifying are on the Rules page.
The IFRL is a sixteen-driver GT7 league in Rochester, Minnesota. Qualifying and results both run on PS5 screenshots. Related: how we run results.
