Help w/ Android Screenshot App

[RipRoarinBoogerBenis]

I'm looking to develop a simple Android app that takes a screenshot of the user's screen and then displays said screenshot. A friend wanted a unique way to lock their screen and I offered to give it a shot.

Now is there a way to do this through GML or am I going to need to dip in the Android SDK to accomplish this?

Asking before I go and learn a whole other language / development kit.

I think game maker's screen_save() function only saves game screenshots.

for what you want you should use android studio.

Making a screenshot and showing it in the app: Yes, possible with GameMaker.

Making that screenshot someone's lockscreen: Not possible with GameMaker, because you need to dig deep into the internal functions of Android
