An update for the Android Google Photos app (versions 5.97 and later) can help you go directly to a list of screenshots, according to Android Police. With the update, you'll have faster access to screenshots by using a shortcut, accessible from the Photos icon on your phone's homepage with a long press or available to split out as a direct shortcut placed on your screen.
If you don't know how to use shortcuts on Android or have forgotten, here are Google's instructions:
I...Touch and hold the app, then lift your finger. If the app has shortcuts, you'll get a list.
Touch and hold the shortcut.
Slide the shortcut to where you want it. Lift your finger.
Tip: To use a shortcut without adding it to a Home screen, tap it.
