Screenshot and Video Recording Prevention and Detection
We've launched a feature that detects and protects against screenshots and video recording on the WatchMeGrow app.
The privacy of children in your care is so important. That’s why we have terms of service that prohibit users from taking screenshots or recordings of video streaming from your school. By adding a feature that detects and protects against screenshots and video recording, we’re doing even more to protect privacy.
Due to the differing capabilities of iOS and Android, the feature works differently between the two mobile platforms. Specifically:
For iOS Users: The new feature prevents recording video. It also detects when a screenshot is taken within the app, and immediately displays a message indicating that screenshots are a violation of our terms of service. Users must click "OK" to resume use of the app.
For Android Users: The new feature prevents recording video, and prevents screenshots of video from being taken within the app.
