Include phone frame in snapshot in Android Emulator

Question

I'm developing an app and I'm using Android Emulator to get some snapshots.

By default, the screen is captured without the phone frame, like this:

but I'd like to add the phone frame, like this (I captured the screen using the Mac built-in screen capture)

How can I do that? I could use the Mac screen capture but then I would have to crop the images, resizing them etc..etc..)

By design, the Android Emulator just takes the full resolution of the app screen. If you want the device screen, take the screenshot from Android Studio. See this page: https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/am-screenshot.html

Inside of Android Studio, you can add and remove the screen, screen glare, and some additional cropping options.
