JAKARTA - WhatsApp soon seems to be starting to launch a feature that can prevent users from taking screenshots of View Once messages.
According to a WABetaInfo report, Thursday, October 6, from the upload, it can be seen that if the user tries to take a screenshot of the View Once message, the user will get a pop-up message "Not being able to take a screenshot because of the security policy".
In fact, if a user tries to take screenshots with even a third-party application or extension, the result will only show a black screen.
WABetaInfo said WhatsApp would not tell its sender that its recipient was trying to take screenshots, as Snapchat did.
It's not clear when the feature will be available to all users, "We're testing this feature now, and are excited to launch it soon to the user," WhatsApp was quoted as saying by Metro.
The View Oncedilun feature was launched in 2021 yesterday, where users can send messages, including photos and videos of each other who have a certain time before the message disappears.
Unfortunately, many users can still take screenshots before the message disappears, therefore for the safety of WhatsApp boss Mark Zuckerberg said he would launch a screenshot blocking feature that he claimed would solve the problem.
