Policy

Turn off saving snapshots for use with Recall

This policy setting allows you to determine whether snapshots of the screen can be saved for use with Recall. For managed devices, snapshots for Recall are not enabled by default. IT administrators cannot, on their own, enable saving snapshots on behalf of their users. The choice to enable saving snapshots requires individual user opt-in consent. If the policy is not configured, snapshots won't be saved for use with Recall. If you enable this policy, snapshots won't be saved for use with Recall. If snapshots were previously saved on the device, they will be deleted when this policy is enabled. If you set this policy to disabled, end users will have a choice to save snapshots of their screen and use Recall to find things they've seen on their device.
