Screen Protector was developed to block screenshots and blacken screen recordings to improve your privacy. Malicious apps can have a screencast module implemented, allowing the malware to record the screen of the device, a functionality that could allow attackers to monitor and store what's viewed by the user – a good way of secretly stealing information like usernames, passwords and other confidential information that could allow attackers to gain access to the payment data they want to steal.
Screen Protector blocks screenshots and blackens screen recordings everywhere on the device. This usage is completely FREE. If you would like to allow screenshots and recordings on some specific apps, you can unlock PREMIUM features by donating us a coffee :). PREMIUM features include:
+ Trusted Apps where screenshots/recordings should be allowed
+ Use the widget to quickly switch protection when you want to temporarily unlock screenshots/recordings.
+ Start Screen Protector with the start of your device to be immediately protected.

2) I can still record the screen. Is my protection not working?

3) Why can notifications be recorded although the rest of the screen is black?
- Due to the protection behavior in Android 8.0 and higher, only the main screen can be blackened for recordings.
