    It sounds like you’d still be able to take a video of it, then do a little bit of filtering and you’d have an image of the whole message. It’d take slightly more effort, but it’s not “impossible to screenshot.”

        You can do with another device (i.e. filming the screen). It is of course less convenient, but that’s it.
