They recommend not to take screenshots of Facebook Messenger and Instagram conversations

Meta CEO and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg; issued a warning to Messenger users who plan to take a screenshot of a message set to disappear. This is because the app is launching new updates to offer greater privacy in conversations.

Facebook Messenger will now feature end-to-end encryption; the feature that increases the privacy of conversations by ensuring that only you and the person you’re messaging can see it.

Additionally, the update allows users to set their messages to disappear after a set amount of time. This is something that other messaging applications already present.


For the aforementioned Zuckerberg has issued a warning to users of the app who plan to take a screenshot of these messages before they disappear.

“New update for end-to-end encrypted Messenger chats so you get notified if someone screenshots a disappearing message,” Zuckerberg posted on his Facebook profile.

“We are also adding GIFs, stickers and reactions to encrypted chats”he added.

It is worth mentioning that the function has been deployed in the United States. It is expected to reach Facebook users in Europe later, according to USA Today.

The updates will also apply to Instagram, also owned by Meta, Yahoo Finance reported.
