The PS4 can upload screenshots from both within and outside of games. To capture and upload a screenshot, press the Share button on the DualShock 4. This takes a snapshot and opens a menu. You may alternatively hold the Share button down for one second to take a picture without the menu prompt. Select Upload Screenshot, then select the appropriate image.

Choose either Twitter or Facebook for your upload. If this is your first upload to either service, an interface will open to collect your Twitter or Facebook login information. You may also select to send the picture within a message on the PlayStation Network to your friends.

You may create a caption for your image. Twitter images may have up to 140 characters per caption. Facebook images may have up to 1000 characters per caption. Through the Facebook integration settings, it is also possible to setup the particular distribution list able to view your PS4 uploads. When tweeting a screenshot on Twitter, an automatic #PS4share hashtag will appear.
