Goodbye 'Marites'? Facebook adds notification when you screenshot in Messenger
MANILA, Philippines — Meta Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg announced recently that Facebook Messenger now has notifications when someone screenshots your disappearing messages in a secret conversation.
In his Facebook account, Mark said that the new update is secured with end-to-end encryption.
“New update for end-to-end encrypted Messenger chats so you get a notification if someone screenshots a disappearing message,” Mark wrote.
Mark also said that they are adding GIFs (Graphics Interchange Format) and stickers in the chat.
“We're also adding GIFs, stickers, and reactions to encrypted chats too,” he said.
The disappearing messages in Facebook was first introduced in November 2020. The move was part of an effort to provide additional protection.
