Signal-android: [Feature Request] Don't allow saving or forwarding attachment

Created on 6 Aug 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: signalapp/Signal-Android

When sending attachments I cannot be sure that they will stay private. E.g. when sending a photo of myself I don't want it to be forwarded to another person..

You can never be sure, no one is stopping your contacts from building Signal-Android themselves, and removing such a restriction.

Yes, I understand and totally agree that it will never be 100% secure and it will be possible to save the attachment in some way. However as long as you keep this in mind (maybe add a hint) it would be fine in my opinion. It should just be more difficult to do so..
