A Story is a collection of Snaps that play in the order they were taken. You can view your friends’ Stories an unlimited number of times for 24 hours. To see how your friend’s day is going, go check in on their Story on top of the Stories Screen.
To watch a friend’s Story…
Tap the tile with their name at the top of the Stories screen. If there’s no Story beside their name, then you’re all caught up.
After watching a friend’s Story, you’ll see a preview of your next friend’s Story. Tap the screen to watch the next Story, swipe to skip it, or swipe down to exit.
