How to take simulator screenshots for Android is a frequently asked question. There are many ways to do it, but I'd like to show you the easiest and quickest way for Windows and OS X.

I assume here, that you have already installed the Android SDK. If not, you can install it from https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Ok, now just start your simulator as usual. After your simulator is already up and running, go to the Android SDK folder/tools and start the monitor tool (or just search for monitor in the SDK folder).

In the Monitor tool, when you look at the toolbar you have a screenshot icon there. Click and voila, there you are!


You've experienced unusual problems trying to share your screen on a MacBook Pro with Retina display? A black screen with a moving mouse cursor is shared?

In this case your current display resolution settings are too high for screen sharing.

To change the resolution of your display, you can use a tool like "Display Menu".

After you changed the resolution, you may have to restart your screen sharing session.
