How to Save or Delete Snapchat Messages in Chat

Save Messages in Chat

Tap on a message to save it. If you change your mind, you can tap it again to unsave it 👆

Saved messages have a gray background, so everyone in the Chat can see what’s saved!

Delete Messages in Chat

To delete a message, press and hold on it and tap 'Delete.'

Your friends will be able to see that a message was deleted in Chat. And remember, your friends can always take a screenshot before you delete the message!

Please Note: When you delete a message, we'll attempt to remove it from our servers and your friends' devices. This might not always work if someone has a bad internet connection, or is running an old version of Snapchat. In this case, the deleted Chat may still appear for a brief moment!

You can delete messages, Snaps, Bitmoji, Memories, and photos sent from your Camera Roll. You can’t delete other Snapchatters' messages, though 👻
