Does Instagram warn of the screenshots of the messages?

There are apps that do not allow you to take screenshots. Some of these apps are banking, such as BBVA's. Other apps, like Snapchat, alert the other user if you have tried to capture the screen to record messages. But today via Twitter a rumor has leaked that has made users quite nervous, because it has come to question whether Instagram warns you if a user has taken screenshots of direct messages or photos sent. With the passing of the hours, it has been confirmed that at this time, it does not warn, but in the future it could.

Instagram would warn you if someone takes a screenshot of your messages

This rumor broke out on Twitter, in an imWaavey tweet.

This user has been the one who noticed what happened. However, you can rest easy, because at the moment it would be testing on iOS and in a limited way. Being a reduced test version, nothing stable or final.

In this notice, we can see a notification that a user has taken a screenshot. This would apply to sent photos and direct messages (which disappear after viewing them). The notification would be "necessary" to prevent someone from keeping them under the bedroom, because it is made to disappear, not for someone to keep them. Therefore, Instagram would alert you if that happens.

But perhaps Instagram gives the possibility for users to choose, something like the double check of WhatsApp. Be that as it may, for now it is being tested and it is not final. And surely over time we will know official data.

Does not affect all photos or normal posts

Panic spread on Twitter. But rest assured: it does not affect all Instagram photos or normal posts. Also, it is a test. You shouldn't even have to get to the final app. It could even be a fake.

We will be very attentive these days to what happens with Instagram, because it will surely have 0 waste.
