Answer 1

- (void)SnapShot {
    if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector:@selector(scale)]) {
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(self.view.bounds.size, NO, [UIScreen mainScreen].scale);
    } else {
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self.view.bounds.size);
    }
    [self.view.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];

    UIImage *image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    NSData *data = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image);
    [data writeToFile:@"snapshot.png" options:NSDataWritingWithoutOverwriting error:Nil];
    [data writeToFile:@"snapshot.png" atomically:YES];

    UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum([UIImage imageWithData:data], nil, nil, nil);
}
