Does Instagram Notify When You Screenshot a DM?
Yes and no! If you screenshot a disappearing photo or video in a DM, Instagram will notify the sender. But for regular text messages or permanent content, you’re safe—no notification at all!

The answer’s simple: yes for disappearing messages, no for everything else.
Yes, it does. But only for disappearing messages, not for text or other permanent stuff. Keep that in mind when you're spying! ;)
Nope, Instagram won't snitch on you for taking screenshots of regular DMs. You're good to go!
