You can wait for them to replay or notice that they viewed the story. It is okay to be curious because learning how your story was viewed is not always the same as learning by whom.
Would it not be useful if there was a feature that would send a notification whenever someone has viewed your Snapchat story without you having to keep checking the application? There is a way, and in this guide, you will learn how to turn on Story View notifications on Snapchat.
What is Snapchat Story View Notifications?
Story view notifications are another feature that is available only to members who have subscribed to Snapchat’s Plus package. As the name suggests, they inform you when someone opens your Snapchat Story.
It is as simple as choosing the person to whom you want to be notified of the message. Therefore, the next time you post a snap with a friend to share a story on Snapchat, you will get a notification once the selected friend views it.
How to Know When Someone Views Your Snapchat Story
Now that we have been briefed on this feature, it’s time for me to explain how it works and look at the following steps.
- Open Snapchat, then tap on the Bitmoji icon at the top left.
- Within the profile, press on the Snapchat+ icon.
- Scroll down and select Story View Notifications.
- Select another friend for whom you want to turn story view notifications. Remember that you can choose only one person at a time.
- Upon that, click OK on the message confirming it has been set.
However, if you would like to keep things anonymous, you just have to tap on the Make Private button. This will not display the name of a person viewing your story.
Yes, I have to commend the people behind the Snapchat app for being ever in touch with young people’s unrelenting curiosity and designing such options. Although I hope this feature will be available to the general user, it is only available for Snapchat Plus.
