Webtoon Update: No Screenshot Allowed | LineWebtoons Amino

Ummm I took a ss and I dint know about this and I sent it to my friend cause I was trying to prove a point... Is tht OK? Or no? I have deleted the ss's when she told me :no_mouth: Note : I took the ss on the Google webtoon

DUDE WEBTOON JUST LET ME SCREENSHOT

THERE GO MY COMIC EDITS

ok so there was another post about this but was deleted and I put my opinion there so I’ll just put it here too lol

Huh, I saw something about this today in some comments in WebToon. I understand the whole issue with people using screenshots for bad purposes like reposting the WebToon/plagiarism/do something against the laws etc. But still, they’re completely restraining people from the private use of those images (i.e. saving images for fangirling over cute or epic moments lol, using the image as a lock screen or background, etc) and, you know, fair use stuff (memes, edits, basically anything “not reposting/plagiarizing the work”, etc.). The update hasn’t come for my device yet, and even if I actually don’t really take any screenshots of webcomics, I’m not sure that I like that they’re taking screenshots away for everyone.

... Anyway, as the comment below stated, you can still take screenshots from the webtoons from the website, instead of the app. This feature would add but one more step to get a screenshot of a , not too complicated, right? Though, people motivated enough to go through that little extra step in order to plagiarize art or repost the WebToon will do so. That being the case, it doesn’t help much, and pretty much only weeds out the ones who just did that illicit stuff on impulse/are dumb/are too lazy to go to the website instead of the app.

ATTENTION EVERYONE IF YOU WANT TO STILL SCREENSHOT SOME S HERES HOW

°Go to your browser

°Go to the line webtoon website

°Click on the webtoon and screenshot it

Yayyyy

Anyways this feature was implemented to protect the webtoon artists works and stop art thieves.
