No, Instagram didn't notify when you took screenshot.

If you just use the Android screen shot the Instagram app has permission to detect system actions?
Seems like another Facebook 'net controlling' action to me.
On my LINUX PCs the PrtSc button prints a copy of MY screen --that is not detectable by anyone but me.

Instagram doesn't notify for stories screenshot and normal messages.

For disappearing messages, it sometimes notify BUT sometimes it doesn't. Pretty weird. I've experience it myself.

No, instagram does not inform. Now you can’t even see who liked the photos of your friends.

No its not snapshot to tell when someone ss . But if you wanna download images it video you can use Instagram mod apk which lets user download the content on Instagram rather than taking ss

Does Instagram Notify About Screenshots? [Updated 2020]
IDK if this is reliable info ...
If you use a mobile phone app the answer may be yes.
Even if the photo owner is not notified --that data is in the app and could be potentially harvested for some reason by the app owner.

It is quite difficult to remain calm in such situations, you need to be already experienced)

I've heard that it does notify the opponent when you make a screenshot of recent message in Direct Messages , not sure if it's related to when you make screens of a photo shared by the opponent or just messages

No, Instagram does not notify when you screenshot a story or any message but this feature is available on snapchat.

I cannot imagine how it is possible to implement. I have never heard of it.

Instagram used to notify the user that you took a screenshot on their personal message, which should delete itself. But this only worked on Apple phones. It didn't work on android!

 

[DorothyBishop]

Although Instagram did briefly test a feature in 2018 that showed users who screenshotted their Story, the platform currently doesn't notify someone if you screenshot or screen record their Story.

Instagram definetely doesn't have such a function of notification about taking screenshots.

 

[Graybeard]

I cannot imagine how it is possible to implement.

You can do some hacks in apps that you cannot do on normal webpages. Some apps have unusual permissions --the mobile device operating systems are closing many of these 'security' holes now.

It would be a great feature if they add it to all social media apps

If you use that site's screenshot application --that access could be logged --programmatically
If I use my os (Kubuntu LINUX) 'Spectacle' Application NO --only within my own system.
