Waaait a minute! Does Insta notify people when you screenshot a pic?!
Hold the phone people, and take a deep breath -because Instagram users are now sent notifications when someone screenshots a picture.
BRB… dying.
Let's be honest, we all do it; but still, we don't want everyone to know that we do it.

Earlier this week. the photo-sharing app announced that it's going down the Facebook route by introducing live-streaming on the app.
Furthermore, it's also taking a note out of Snapchat's book by allowing its users to send photos that disappear after a few seconds.

But, while all the social media sites seem to be rolling into one (anybody else notice that?), it has been discovered that when people take a screenshot, you will be able to see what picture it was AND when the screenshot was taken.
But, reel your breath back in ladies, because thankfully, it looks like the feature is only for the disappearing photos function and doesn't affect Instagram Stories or your regular IG pics.
Thank GOD, we were having a little freak out there…
