How to Know if Someone Screenshot Your Whatsapp Status

Have you ever wondered if someone took a screenshot of your WhatsApp status? If you’re concerned about privacy, you may want to know if someone has taken a screenshot without your knowledge.

WhatsApp does not currently have an automated way for you to know if someone has taken a screenshot of your status, but there are still a few ways you can tell:

Check Your Status Views

You can check the number of people who viewed your status by tapping on the eye icon next to your status update. If you see a higher number than the people you know personally have viewed it, then it’s likely that someone has screen captured your status.

Check Notifications

WhatsApp sends out a notification when someone takes a screenshot of your status, so you can use this to tell if someone has taken a screenshot.

Check Recent Stories

If you see a story appearing in the “recent stories” section of your WhatsApp profile, it means that someone has screen captured your status.

Tips to
Prevent Screenshots of Your Status

Here are a few tips to help you prevent people from taking screenshots of your status:

  • Turn off the read receipts – this will not prevent people from taking screenshots, but it will stop them from knowing that you have seen the status.
  • Set your status to private – only people you have given access to will be able to see your status.
  • Block story viewers – this will prevent people from seeing your story and taking screenshots.

If you are concerned about someone taking a screenshot of your status, then it’s best to be proactive and use the methods mentioned above to protect your status.
