How to Hide a Snapchat Story from Someone

Although WhatsApp and Instagram also have a Story feature for capturing and sharing memories, the feature was initially introduced by Snapchat. By default, your storey is visible to everyone on your Snapchat friends list. In certain circumstances, you may not want a bunch of pals to check on your recent weekend excursion. On Snapchat, you can conceal your planned storey from them. Here’s how.

HIDE YOUR STORY FROM ANOTHER PERSON ON SNAPCHAT

To begin, we'll discuss how to hide your next Snapchat storey from selected friends and address some common queries about the move.

Snapchat's iOS and Android apps share a common user interface. We'll demonstrate the steps in this post using the Snapchat app for iPhone. You may accomplish the same task on Android by following the same instructions.

step 1: Open Snapchat on your iPhone or Android device.

step 2:It will then bring up the camera's viewfinder menu. At the top, click the profile menu.

Step 3: Hover your cursor over the three-dot menu next to the My Story option.

Step 4: From the context menu, select Story Settings.

Everyone: As the name says, your submitted snap storey is public on the platform. The storey may begin to surface in the Discover menu for other users as well. We would advise against this course of action (unless you are an influencer or want to become one).

My Companions: The storey is visible to all of your Snapchat buddies.

Custom: This feature enables you to prevent certain friends from accessing your tale. This is the term we will utilise in this instance.

Step 5: Select Custom, which will bring up a list of your pals.

Step 6: Choose which Snapchat contacts you wish to conceal the storey from. Once the selection is complete, press on the Block button at the bottom.

Your My Story setting will be changed to Custom, and all your existing and future stories will be hidden from selected friends.

This method is ideal for concealing your Snapchat storey from a few select pals. However, what if you have hundreds of friends on the social media platform and wish to share the storey with only a select group of users?

Instagram's 'Closed Friends' feature enables you to create a small circle of friends with whom you can share stories exclusively. Snapchat does not have this feature, and you must distribute the tale to close friends via DM (direct messaging).

Frequently Asked Questions: HOW TO HIDE A STORY FROM SOMEONE ON SNAPCHAT

Does the Change Affect Existing Snapchat Stories?

After publishing the storey on Snapchat, you can access the Story Settings and choose to hide it from certain friends. It makes sense to make the privacy adjustment first and then publish the storey. What if a friend views your Snapchat storey immediately after you share it?

Will Unknown Users Receive Notifications?

When you choose to prevent certain friends from viewing a Snapchat storey, they will be unaware of the change. When your friends don't see any new content from you for an extended period of time, they can make an educated guess.

Will Blocked Users Be Able to Send and Receive Snapchat Direct Messages?

Simply put, you're preventing your friends from accessing Snapchat stories. Apart from that, users can send and receive messages, as well as monitor other actions.

Is it Possible to View a Hidden Friend's Snapchat Story?

Unless your buddy intentionally concealed tales, you will continue to see your friend's.

Is the User's Snapchat Friend List Permanent?

Yes, you retain friendships with all users from whom you conceal stories. This will have no effect on your friend list.

DISTRIBUTE YOUR SNAPCHAT STORY TO ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS

When you hide your storey from someone on Snapchat, you will eventually lose the user's social media engagement. After your Snapchat storey expires after 24 hours, you can adjust the setting to make future Snapchat stories accessible to all friends.

step 1: Launch Snapchat and navigate to your profile.

Step 2: Select My Friends from the Story Settings menu.
