Whatsapp S Screenshot Blocking Feature Expected To Arrive Soon

Back in August, WhatsApp announced Screenshot Blocking for the “View Once” messages. Following this, the feature appeared as part of beta on Android and has now reached WhatsApp for iOS beta, suggesting that will officially launch soon. Have a look at the details.

A recent report by WABetaInfo reveals that WhatsApp beta users on iOS have started seeing the Screenshot Blocking feature as part of the beta version, 22.21.0.71. This was earlier available for Android beta users.

Unlike Snapchat, people won’t be notified if someone tries to take a screenshot of their View Once messages. People would still be able to take a picture or a video via a secondary device, though. Additionally, this feature won’t block screenshots or screen recording for messages.
