how can I disable screenshot capabilities on Android phone

[AC Question]

Need to know how to disable screenshot capabilities

Why do you want to?
In advanced features, you can turn off palm swipe screen shot function (in Samsung). Not sure what device you have...

If it's your device, just don't take screenshots. I mean you're not going to be able to disable it on someone else's device. Even if you did they'd just turn it back on.

I'm seeing more to this story than you're letting on. What is getting screenshoted? Messages, pics, something from an app, is someone using screenshots from your phone to send themselves proof of something... I mean there are apps that you can use that will not allow screenshots. SMS apps that disable screenshots without a password, probably the same with email, and there are a ton of pic galleries that will either hide pics or disable sending pics. So tell us the whole story and we'll be able to help you better.

I have a vernee v2 Pro. It has a dedicated screen shot button on the side and I can't find a way to disable it. It is very annoying as I keep taking screen shots

This thread is 2 years old since it posted many things have changed, I'm carrying an HTC U12+ and while it doesn't have a dedicated button it does have customizable shortcut gestures for performing this action. My best advice is attempt to change it's function, most likely under Display and Gesture, or under a specialized heading. For HTC it's Edge Sense. If that fails check your user manual or contact the maker. I can't imagine there is not a way to do this if it's so easily hit, it just may not be obvious.
