Protecting the screen in "recent apps" and in "screenshots" events

Open serrq opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Some apps give the ability (optional) to switch ON/OFF the "screenshot" and "recent apps" protection feature by other prying apps. Basically a privacy feature. Here an implementation and some examples.

All my links that end up in the browser first go through Leon.

What would be the point of protecting only the browser?

A screen protection is needed in Leon too, in my humble opinion.

Of course I could implement this, wouldn't be too complicated.

But does it really make sense for Leon? I understand that protecting the screen and preventing screenshots makes sense for banking, crypto currency or other apps with sensitive information but for Leon, I'm not so sure?

I cover everything, even the calculator. I don’t ask myself the question because I have eliminated the problem at the root. My smartphone apps are all covered. What do I have to worry about if everything is covered?

This is privacy by ignorance. I don’t know where the threat can come from, because of ignorance I cover everything. Problem destroyed. I respect your ideas. Feel free to do what you want.
