Snapchat: This is how you can take a screenshot without notifying the other user

Snapchat is one of those leading social media applications that people use to update their friends on their mundane matters. Not only this, but also the application is widely known for having very strict privacy policies for its users.

Among those policies comes the screenshot notification feature that instantly notifies the user whose chat/photo or snap gets screenshotted by a friend. People tend to take screenshots of things they deem important from the chats with their friends, or even screenshot a snap story of a friend, but unfortunately it instantly notifies the other person, and ends up raising suspicions.

In order to save the embarrassment, there are a few ‘unofficial’ ways to save a screenshot without letting the other person know.

Google Assistant

Why embarrass yourself when you have an option of asking your Google Assistant to do the deed? Quickly go to the snap you are willing to save, and ask Google Assistant to take a screenshot, by saying ‘Ok Google’.

But the catch is that your screenshot will not be automatically saved to the gallery.

Airplane Mode

Simply, go to the snap you want, turn on the Airplane mode, take a screenshot and turn off the latter. Now enjoy viewing your saved snap from the gallery without letting the other person know!
