> Control whether Support Workers can screenshot or record video in the Astalty mobile app.

Scheduling add-on - This feature requires the Scheduling add-on, which is available on Astalty Premium. See How to enable Scheduling.

## Overview

The **App Privacy** setting controls the screen capture policy used by the Astalty mobile app. It appears in Scheduling settings when the account has access to both Scheduling and App Privacy.

## How to Configure App Privacy

1. Go to [**Settings > Scheduling > General**](https://app.astalty.com.au/settings/scheduling).
2. Find the **Notes & Visibility** card and select **Edit**, then scroll to **App Privacy**.
3. Choose one of the following options:

- **Allow Screenshots** lets the device capture the app screen.
- **Forbid Screenshots** asks the device to prevent screen capture while the Astalty app is in use.

4. Save the change.

## How It Works

When **Forbid Screenshots** is selected, the app applies the device's screen capture protection. If the app detects a screenshot attempt, it shows **Screen Capture Disabled** with the message **Your organisation has screen capture disabled.** Exact screenshot and screen recording behaviour can vary by device and operating system.

## Important Note

This setting governs screen capture inside the Astalty mobile app. It does not control other apps on the device.
