I'm a recent user of the app (V 4.0.0) and it's just what I need but it is out of date compared to the latest version of VirtualBox (running Version 5.0.16 r105871). I'm running Android version 5.0 on a Samsung Galaxy S5.

        _IDisplay::TakeScreenShot() and IDisplay::TakeScreenShotToArray()

        </listitem>

The same thing happened with the snapshots function...

Other features seem to work fine (Pause, Reset, Power off, ACPI Button)

I'm not a developer and I have no experience with coding changes to Android apps. I'm just sharing what I found in case someone wants to take this on.
