Snapchat is a popular social media platform that allows users to share photos and videos with their friends and followers. One of the unique features of Snapchat is the ability to create and share Stories, which are collections of snaps that can be viewed by all of your friends. However, not all snaps are meant for everyone to see. In this article, I will guide you through the process of creating a Private Story on Snapchat, which is a great way to share snaps with a select group of friends.
Snapchat Story and Private Story: How Do They Differ?
Before we dive into the process of creating a Private Story on Snapchat, it’s important to understand how it differs from a regular Snapchat Story. A Snapchat Story is a collection of snaps that can be viewed by all of your friends for 24 hours. Private Stories, on the other hand, are only visible to the people you invite to join the story. This makes them a great way to share snaps with a select group of friends without worrying about your snaps being seen by everyone.
Private Stories also have a few additional features that regular Snapchat Stories do not. For example, you can choose to allow members of a Private Story to contribute their own snaps to the story. You can also set up custom privacy settings for each Private Story, which allows you to control who can see your snaps and who can’t.
How to Set up and Create Private Snapchat Story
Creating a Private Story on Snapchat is a simple process that can be done in just a few steps. Here’s how to set up a Private Story on Snapchat:
- Open Snapchat and navigate to the camera screen.
- Swipe right to access your Snapchat Stories.
- Tap on the “Create Story” button.
- Select “Private Story” from the options.
- Choose the friends you want to invite to the Private Story.

Once you’ve created your Private Story, you can start adding snaps to it. To add a snap to your Private Story, simply take a photo or video and then tap the “Send To” button. From there, select your Private Story from the list of options.
How to Delete a Private Story on Snapchat
If you decide that you no longer want to keep a Private Story on Snapchat, you can easily delete it. Here’s how to delete a Private Story on Snapchat:

How to Leave Private Story on Snapchat
If you’ve been added to a Private Story on Snapchat and you no longer want to be a part of it, you can leave the story at any time. Here’s how to leave a Private Story on Snapchat:
- Open Snapchat and navigate to your Stories.
- Tap and hold on the Private Story you want to leave.
