I seem to have managed to take a screenshot of an Android app. This appears to have been done by Alien Dalvik (and the screenshots are saved within the Android storage), but I didn't know that it had this functionality built-in, nor do I know how to recreate the event.
Can anyone enlighten me on how I take 'native' Android screenshots?
(and no, it wasn't some accidental usage of a Jolla screenshot application, as I don't have one installed)

This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
Download "Screenshot" app from Jolla store. Set at least a 10 sec delay, start the countdown and switch back to your android application.
Thanks, but I'm well aware of downloadable Jolla apps for grabbing the screen, as my post suggests. My point is that I (accidentally) managed to grab an Android app screenshot with no such app installed. What I want to know is how did I do that? It would appear to be an undocumented feature in Alien Dalvik.

I just tried the usual android-shortcuts for taking screenshots and couldn't manage to reproduce it. But I have no android gallery-viewer installed. Where are those screenshots located in the filesystem relative to sailfish?
perhaps
/home/nemo/android_storage/DCIM ?
