Does FaceTime Notify Screenshot? How to Take a Screenshot on FaceTime?

Does FaceTime notify screenshots? It depends!

Answer 1: No. FaceTime doesn't send a direct message to tell if someone screenshots during a call on iPhone and iPad. Instead, the audible shutter sound and blinking screen alert you that someone is taking a screenshot.

Answer 2: Yes. A FaceTime screenshot notification saying "You took a FaceTime Photo" appears on the screens of all parties when you capture a live photo during any video call.

Additionally, FaceTime will not notify screen recording. For more info, please read "Does Facetime Notify Screen Recording".
