Is it possible to make a sketch in such a way
that I can make a screendump of an Andriod tablet (WIFI) when pressing a button
which is connected to an ESP32 Devkit, both using my WIFI network?
Now I have to press simultaneously the ON/OFF button and the Volume button of the Tablet or have to swipe my palm across the screen.
Both options are not so confortable in practice, because the buttons of the tablet are not designed to use them often
and swiping my palm over the screen when the tablet is mounted on a snapview case is not very easy.
And is it possible that I can press a second switch to the ESP32 that opens  a small video clip in Full Screen mode on the tablet?
I am not involved in Andorid commands to see if such is possible.

Hi.
I’m not sure if that is possible.
You can control the ESP with the tablet, but I don’t think you can do it the other way around. I don’t have enough knowledge of this subject to suggest something.
Maybe if you post your issue on our Facebook group, someone knows something about this.

Thank you for your suggestion.
Unfortunately I have no facebook account. So I am not a member of this group.
That means also that I cannot read or write.
I have an account for https://groups.io. Is that something that RNT labs support?

Hi.
Unfortunately, we don’t support that group software 🙁
You can always try to use the Arduino or the ESP32 espressif forum.
I’m sorry that I can’t help much with this subject.
Regards,
Sara
