What on earth are those in charge of certification standards thinking they'll achieve with requirements like this?
The same functionality that you use to take screenshots can be hijacked by bad actors to get access to your stuff. It's especially bad if they can see your MFA apps or other sensitive info.
Not saying the functionality is always used for the best of intentions, but there are many situations where I see it as necessary.
It's probably to stop third party apps from screenshoting the banking app.
Accidentally screenshotting your bank acct and routing number is the only one I can really think of.
Or your "time clock earth sounds" app from the not so well policed appstore takes silent background screenshots, grayscales them and sends them to their host for OCR.
I agree this permission is annoying. But I differ in I feel it should be system controlled and can be invoked by apps that identify specific fields to be blocked, instead ofnjusy disabling it outright.
Not sure how this is relevant, these numbers are routinely shared with clients and suppliers.
