Snapchat is a popular messaging app that allows users to send photos and videos to their friends. While the app offers a range of photo editing tools and filters, there are certain features that can raise privacy concerns. For instance, when you send a message to someone, they can save it and view it later. However, if you regret sending a message or if you want to ensure your privacy, there are steps you can take to delete messages on Snapchat.
In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the steps to delete Snapchat messages that the other person saved.
Open Snapchat
The first step is to open the Snapchat app on your phone. Once you’ve logged in, you should see the camera screen.
Access the Chat
Swipe right to access the Chat screen. You’ll see a list of all the chats you’ve had with your friends.
Find the Chat
Scroll through the list of chats to find the one you want to delete messages from.
Long-Press the Message
To delete a message, long-press on it. This will bring up a pop-up window with several options.
Unsave the Message
Click on “Unsave” to remove the message from the recipient’s saved messages. If you want to delete the message altogether, proceed to the next step.
Delete Snapchat Messages
Click on “Delete” to remove the message from both your chat history and the recipient’s device. Keep in mind that deleting a message may not work if the recipient has poor internet connectivity or an old version of the app.
Take Screenshots
To ensure your privacy, take screenshots of any messages you want to keep. This way, you’ll have a backup in case the conversation is deleted or the other person changes their phone.
Remove the User from Your Friend List
To prevent the recipient from accessing your messages in the future, remove them from your friend list on Snapchat. This will make it impossible for you to find their chats in your chat history.
Conclusion
Snapchat is a fun and useful app for sending photos and videos to friends. However, it’s important to be aware of the privacy implications of certain features, such as saved messages. If you want to ensure your privacy on Snapchat, you can follow the steps outlined in this blog post to delete messages that the other person saved. Remember to take screenshots of any messages you want to keep and remove the user from your friend list to prevent them from accessing your messages in the future.
