One thrilling feature of WhatsApp in recent times is its ability to send a message that can only be viewed once. This feature increases the level of security on the green App. Because, there are times you truly want a message viewed once. But what is the purpose of the view-once feature, if one can still screenshot or screen record the same?
I once use screenshots as the hack to have this kind of file or pictures sent in view once formatted. Howbeit, WhatsApp will soon disable the ability to screenshot or screen record view-once messages.
There is no actual date in view, but WhatsApp will someday block people from taking screenshots of view-once messages. This feature is in the beta testing phase. We are anxiously waiting to know how possible this would be for WhatsApp to disable screenshots for view-once messages.
It is true that many foreign brands disenable screenshots for their apps, but will this be possible for WhatsApp?
Many would find another way around it, and while WhatsApp seeks to profer a solution to what they see as an issue, there’s every possibility of another problem showing up; How about people getting another phone to snap the view once message?
Although, there is no end to possibilities in the world of technology, for now, let’s enjoy the hack of having view-once messages screenshotted on our devices, while the company work out a way of disabling the ability to screenshot or screen record.
