== take a screenshot ==Functionality depends on the Android device and Android OS version.  Here are some common methods.For old Android devices using Android OS 2.3 and older a 3rd party app is required.  It may be necessary to root the device to enable functionality for the app.  Some manufacturer specific models have a built in screenshot function specific to their brand.  If your device is newer running Android 4 and above you can press the Volume Down and Power buttons at the same time, hold them for a second, and your phone will take a screenshot. One some Samsung Galaxy phones you press the Power and Home buttons at the same time to take a screenshot.  Some models require you to create a new screen swipe gesture.  Another method on some Android models uses only the power button.  Just press and hold the power button from 1-2 seconds until you see a menu with options "Power off, Airplane mode, and Take screenshot."
