Details

STR:

  1. Install and open Mozilla VPN. I'm assuming you're looking at the first-run "Sign up" welcome screen.
  2. Tap "Sign in" or "Already a subscriber".
  3. Hold your power button and press volume-down to take a screenshot.
  4. Look at the screenshot that you just captured.

ACTUAL RESULTS:
The screenshot is blank/dark. It looks like we've got "no screenshots allowed" privacy-mode enabled for this part of the app, for some reason?

EXPECTED RESULTS:
I should be able to take screenshots.

(Ran across this when trying to capture a screenshot for bug 1857360, which is another bug that manifests when we're showing on these pages. I ended up having to screenshot a different part of the app instead where that bug also-manifests, in order to successfully get a screenshot over there.)

I'm using Android 13 on a Pixel 6a with Mozilla VPN version 2.17.0.

Interesting! I'm moving this on our Jira for tracking and added you as Collaborator:
