NO! Unlike Snapchat, Facebook will not notify the users when you screen record or screenshot their photos, profiles, videos, stories, and even Reels. So, you can easily screen record or take screenshots of almost all items on Facebook.

However, you need to keep in mind that Facebook will alert the user if you screen record or take a screenshot of a disappearing message. And that's the only case in which Facebook will send a notification.

But it's important to respect people's privacy on the Internet. So, we kindly suggest that you'd better ask for permission from the users if you want to take screenshots of their Facebook content. Otherwise, you might break the law.

Now that you've learned Facebook won't send a notification while recording content, it is also necessary to choose an excellent tool to record or take snapshots on Facebook. According to my experience, EaseUS RecExperts is a good option.
