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 all of your contacts to see. Here’s how 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 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. 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
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 of course 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.
