Why Save and Unsave Snapchat Messages?
If you or a friend you’re chatting with shares a piece of information that’s worth remembering, it can help to save it so that you can access it later. When that piece of information is no longer of any need to you or your Snapchat friends, you can clean up your chat by unmarking it.
How to Unsave a Snapchat Message
You can save and unsave a message as many times as you want as long as you don’t exit the chat.
How Unsaving Snapchat Messages Works
When you save a Snapchat message, everyone in the chat can see it as long as it remains saved. In other words, if you save a message for yourself, you’re also saving it for everybody else to see too.
Tap a saved message. An “Unsaved” label appears to the left of it for a second or two before it quickly disappears.Tap and hold a saved message to see a list of options pop up. Tap Unsave in Chat to unsave it.
Likewise, when someone else in the chat saves a message, it saves for everyone. If you unsaved a message, but it remains highlighted in gray and doesn’t disappear when you exit the chat, then somebody else has saved it. Unfortunately, you can’t remove a message on behalf of someone else. If everybody in a group chat marked a message, everybody would also have to unsave it to disappear from the app. Finally, if you clear your conversations from your settings tab but have previously saved messages in those conversations, that does not unsave them. Clearing conversations only removes them from your main conversations tab. You need to follow the instructions above to unsave your saved messages.
