Snapchat offers some features to help you track who has viewed your Story, but it does not provide a way to see who has taken a screenshot of your Story. Here’s how you can see who viewed your Snapchat Story and get notifications if someone takes a screenshot of your Snap:
Viewing Who Viewed Your Snapchat Story
- Open Snapchat: Launch the Snapchat app on your device.
- Go to Your Story: Tap on your profile icon or Bitmoji in the top-left corner to access your profile.
- Tap on Your Story: Tap on “My Story” to see a list of your posted Snaps.
- View Details: Tap on an individual Snap within your Story to see who has viewed it. Swipe up on the Snap to see a list of usernames of those who viewed your Snap.
Screenshot Notifications
- Snaps: If someone takes a screenshot of a Snap you sent directly to them (not on your Story), Snapchat will notify you with a double-arrow icon next to their name in the chat list.
- Stories: While viewing who has seen your Story, if someone has taken a screenshot of your Story Snap, you will see a small screenshot icon (two overlapping arrows) next to their name in the viewer list.
Additional Tips
- Custom Story Settings: You can adjust who can see your Story by going to your profile, tapping on the gear icon (Settings) in the top-right corner, and selecting “Who Can View My Story.” You can choose “Everyone,” “My Friends,” or “Custom” to control the audience.
- Privacy Considerations: Snapchat prioritizes user privacy, so while it informs you of who viewed your Stories and if someone screenshots your direct Snaps, it doesn’t notify you about screenshots of Stories as prominently. Always be mindful of what you share on the platform.
Steps for Enhanced Privacy
- Private Stories: Use Private Stories to share content with a select group of friends. To create a Private Story, go to your profile, tap “New Story,” then select “Private Story.”
- Custom Settings: Adjust your privacy settings to ensure only trusted friends can view your Stories. This minimizes the chances of unwanted screenshots.
By following these steps, you can stay informed about who is viewing your Snapchat Stories and be aware if someone screenshots your direct Snaps.
