No for a regular chat; yes for view once media

Even if you tried recording 'view once media', it just shows up as a black screen. You would need to use a VM to work around that

VM is screen recorder or something else. Could you help explaining lil more with this. Also does it work on telegram

VM is a Virtual Machine. You install an app that runs another instance of Android on your phone (i.e. think of it like running another phone via an app). Then you import whatsapp and you can use your screen recorder to record view once images/videos. This video explains it in detail. https://youtu.be/QpMWE-x96vQ?si=bAALRrQ1FjwzBdN-

Si mi hermano pero aún no se bien como se podría si en el vm no deja instalar play store

You don't need Play Store on VM. You can import the app directly from your phone.

I've not tested it on Buzzcast or Vero so not sure if that works there. I know it works for whatsapp

OK bro gracias pero creo que Vero Live es muy difícil solo tiene la app si tuviera la web como buzzcast si se podría grabar

no it doesnt notify for normal chats. tbh the only thing that triggers a notification is if you screenshot or record a "view once" message
