  • Source File: CoronaWarnApplication.kt
  • Line(s): 101 - 103 activity.window.setFlags( WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_SECURE, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_SECURE )
  • Feedback: Screenshots der App sollten erlaubt sein, wenn der Bildschirm zur TAN-Eingabe nicht geöffnet ist. Es ist wünschenswert, wenn die Nutzer*innen Screenshots in den sozialen Medien verbreiten und so andere zur Installation der App anregen.

Well done Developers. I will deinstall the App now. You lost my acceptance. It is MY phone and I decide what I make a screenshot of.

Siehe auch #77 für einen Feature-Request.

Ich habe das endlos versucht zu diskutieren, aber das BSI hatte gemeint, dass man Screenshots wegen den Teletans verhindern müsse. Da der Hauptteil der App nur aus einer Aktivität besteht, und Screenshots nur pro Aktivität verhindert werden können, wurde das dann durchgesetzt (obwohl es sogar Pull Requests von zahlreichen Helfern gab).

Der korrekte Fix wäre, die Krankmeldung als eigene Aktivität mit Screenshots disabled zu machen und den Rest offen lassen. Davon redet #77.
