Not sure if this is the correct place to post, but I just wanna kinda rant a bit.

I'm not the only one that hates this, right?

An app can just do a "This App Does Not Allow Screenshots"? Like... wtf?

Like, its my phone, and some app can just decide to disable a fuction of my phone. It's my phone and if I wanna take a screenshot, I'm taking a screenshot. I don't care about whatever "security" the app developer wants.

Imagine if every online shopping app whether fast food or amazon, just used this to block you from taking a screenshot so you can't save the records in case of a dispute.

Which android developer thought it was a good idea to let an app disable a function on your phone. Even iPhone doesn't have this stupid concept.

Sorry for the rant.

Anyone wanna share your stories?

(P.S. I have a cheap secondary phone to take photos of the screen. "This App Does Not Allow Screenshots" my ass lmao, I'm taking the screenshot whether the app wants it or not.

Microsoft teams limits your clipboard to 500 characters when you try to copy on the app. Of course blocks screenshots too. If I'm on a meeting that isn't being recorded, I now have no way of saving any pertinent information, and the ones that ARE recorded get automatically deleted after 30 days. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

30 days is set by your company. Ours is set to 90 days. Stupid, on my opinion. If I recorded it, I obviously want to keep it. For this reason, I user OBS on my computer and record meetings through that. Bypass teams's recording framework altogether.

Sorry. Open broadcaster software. While not really intended for this use case, it works great for it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I can confirm, OBS Studio is perfect for recording Microsoft Teams sessions. Other parties are not aware of the recording unlike Teams built-on recording.

Probably works for every similar application as well.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Oh, it does lol. If it's images on the screen and audio through the output, OBS can record it. It's awesome!

In litigation, if one side destroys evidence beforehand, or goes to great lengths to deliberately not collect it, courts instruct juries to presume against the side that destroyed the evidence. Companies that think they're being clever by using apps that auto-delete records aren't as clever as they think they are. This Teams feature is obviously meant to make it difficult to assist in corporate malfeasance. Using Teams is now a liability risk to companies.

using a secondary phone to take pictures of the screen intensifies
