The function is presently reside for me within the US. I took a screenshot in Horizon Forbidden West, and some moments later, it popped up within the app. So far as I can inform, all of it works prefer it did when it was briefly enabled for me in January. Beforehand, it was a a lot greater problem to take captures off your PS5, so I’m comfortable this function is lastly rolling out.
