How to Configure Screenshot Notifications

1. Navigate to the Settings module from the left-side navigation panel.

2. Under the Timer Apps section, click Screenshot Notifications.

3. By default, the Disable option is selected, which turns off screenshot notifications for all users.

4. To enable screenshot notifications, select the Enable option.

5. A confirmation pop-up will appear asking if you want to update the settings. Click Yes to proceed or No to cancel.

6. Once the settings are updated successfully, a confirmation message stating "Settings updated successfully" will appear. Click OK to complete the process.

If you want to enable each team member with the ability to stop showing app notifications for taking screenshots, then you can set the default to “enable” to enable this setting for everyone in the organization.

Similarly, if you do not want to allow anyone, you can set the default to ‘disable’.

Screenshots Blur

Workstatus allows organization owners to add a blur to screenshots to prevent the collection of private data. Once this feature is enabled, the Desktop app will blur the captured screenshots. The blurring is applied on the device where the app is running, so the images that are uploaded to server already have the blur effect applied.

How to Configure Screenshot Blur

1. Navigate to the Settings module from the left-side navigation panel.

2. Under the Timer Apps section, click Screenshot Blur.

3. On the Screenshot Blur settings page, you can control whether screenshots captured by the desktop application are blurred to enhance security and privacy.

4. Click the On or Off toggle to enable or disable the Screenshot Blur feature.

5. A confirmation pop-up will appear asking if you want to update the settings.

6. Once the settings have been updated successfully, a confirmation message stating "Settings updated successfully" will appear. Click OK to complete the process.

Here is how the blurred image will appear:
