How do Shared Stories on Snapchat work?

Shared Stories are for you and your friends. Only you and the friends you pick can view and add Snaps to a Shared Story.

You can see who else can view a Shared Story in the Shared Story Profile! Press and hold on the Story and tap 'View Profile.'

Check out these tips for creating or adding Snaps to a Shared Story.

Snaps added to a Shared or Private last 24 hours. If no one adds a Snap to the Story in 24 hours, then it will delete by default.
Snapchat servers are designed to automatically delete Snaps that you add to a Story when the Snap expires (usually 24 hours after posting, but varies depending on your Settings).
The Snapchatter who created the Shared Story can save the whole thing. Learn more about saving Stories.
If the creator of a Shared Story deletes it, then all of the Snaps in the Story get deleted, too. But don’t forget, Snapchatters can save their own Snaps and screenshot anyone else’s Snaps beforehand.
Learn how to add or remove Snaps from a Story or save your Story to Memories.
