How to block people from seeing your Snapchat story

Sometimes you might want to post something to your Snapchat Story that you don’t want everyone to see. Fortunately, it’s easy to block people from seeing your Snapchat story.

Snapchat is used by millions of people around the world on a daily basis, who use the instant messaging app to communicate with their friends using a range of features.

The popular story feature allows users to post photos or videos to their profile, which will last 24 hours, or even more if you have Snapchat Plus.

But what if you want to block specific contacts from being able to view your story? Here’s everything you need to know about how to do that.

How to block people from seeing your Snapchat story

If you want to hide one of your stories just from one or a few selected people, then simply do the following:

1. Open Snapchat
2. Go to your profile located in the top left corner.
3. Scroll down to ‘My Stories’
4. Tap the three dots and select ‘Story Settings’
5. Click ‘Custom’
6. Select who you want to block from viewing your story, then click ‘Block’

You can also opt to block someone entirely on the app, meaning they won’t be able to contact you or see your story. However, just blocking someone from seeing your story is a good option if you don’t want to block them completely.

To unblock someone from seeing your story, simply follow the same steps and uncheck the person you want to unblock. Once you’ve unselected them, they will be able to view your Snapchat stories again.
