About this app

Developer Description

Make screenshots and keep them privately. Chat apps can't detect them anymore.

Intro
Some of the messaging apps detect screenshots you made from conversations. They notify person, you're chatting with, about the fact that you save a screenshot. Now you can save screenshots absolutely confidential.

Note
This app doesn't work with protected apps, like Netflix, Chrome incognito, Tor Browser, private Telegram chat, banking apps, etc. You will get black screen or just an error.

How it ensures privacy?
All files are saved into hidden directory. The app doesn't broadcast any message about new screenshot. Any other app can't access screenshots directly. Only you can browse them, share or delete.

How it works?
The app launches 'presentation' mode on your device and captures the whole screen's content. It displays draggable button which saves the current picture from screen into a file.

How to use?
● Press START button
● Grant permissions to allow capturing content of display
● Press screenshot button in order to make screenshot
● Press and hold screenshot button in order to return back to app
● Press STOP button in order to exit from 'presentation' mode

Advanced
● Android 7 and higher: you can put a shortcut into the Quick Settings drawer
● Android 7.1 and higher: hold app's icon to reveal shortcut for quick Start/Stop

Make a screen recorder that cant be detected by apps such as telegram, snapchat either

★★★

When I select Restricted apps > Other apps (not incognito) in the app it says : Some apps present sensitive data (e.g. banking apps) or copyright-protected content (e.g. video streaming apps). App developers can opt to use the Android platform's security setting to prevent the screen from being captured, recorded, or shown on "non-secure displays" such as the Recent Apps view. This is the system protection designed for your personal safety, it's impossible to bypass it.

App tells me to go to the play store to update it. There is no update. Please remove this message and let us use the app normally.

Instantly uninstalled after reading the review that states it doesn't do what most folk download it for. I've just managed to save a few thousand clients the stress of needing to learn how to use this app. Thank you Ruffian Tux, you mate are a legend :) - respect. Developer(s): such a shame you couldn't add that feature.
