It's not possible at all, no permission exists that lets an Android app record something in another app. Much to the sadness of the mobile Hearthstone community that would love collection managers and stat tracking apps like what PC and Mac have.

Yeah, it's possible with something like Shizuku. scrcpy works via adb, so something similar could work on-device.

It's just not a part of Android's standard permission system.
