@delroth I wonder if Google patched this for the Pixel 7 since I can't get it to work. Weird stuff.

@mylan it should be part of the March security update which got rolled out to Pixel 7 earlier this week. Still no update for Pixel 6 though...

@delroth ah that explains it. Sorry if this was explained earlier I tried to read it all. Definitely don't mean to downplay the severity of it, this is kinda wild. I've certainly cropped screenshots because of sensitive info and nowhere we are. Hopefully those screenshots aren't floating around somewhere anymore 🙄

@mylan @delroth try it on a screenshot you took and cropped before March...

@mylan @delroth For me it worked on my pixel 7 with a screenshot I took a minute ago. Revealed the deleted portion of the screen. Phone is fully up to date according to settings app.

I have not received the march security update yet, though, so it seems they haven't rolled it out to everyone.

Thankfully I have only had a Pixel for a week, and have never used that tool to crop. But I imagine there are millions, if not billions of screenshots in the wild suffering from this. Yikes...
