Besides the option to exchange snaps, Snapchat added multiple features throughout the years to make the platform more engaging. One such recently added feature is Shared Story. This guide will help you know everything about Shared Story on Snapchat and how to use it.
Shared Stories are group chats exclusively for Snapchat stories and are an extension of the custom stories feature. Users and their selected friends (or any contacts) can add Snaps to a Shared Story. With this, users can stay updated about their friends circle with a Snap. Let’s look at how to create a Shared Story on Snapchat and more.
Using the Shared Stories feature is straightforward, and anyone with a Snapchat account can create them. Here’s how:
Step 1: Open Snapchat on your smartphone and tap your Avatar at the top left corner.
Step 2: Scroll down to My Stories and choose ‘New Shared Story.’
Step 3: Tap Continue to agree > choose the members you want to create a Shared Story with > tap Create Story.
Note: If you’re accessing the feature for the first time, tap on Continue to agree to Snapchat’s Community Guidelines.
Step 4: Name the Shared Story and tap Save.
That’s it! You have created a Shared Story. Now, you and your friends can add their snaps to the Shared Story you created, and they can add contributors as well.
Note: You are automatically added to a Shared Story on Snapchat when your friends add you. However, if you join a Shared Story with someone you’ve blocked on Snapchat, you’ll be notified whether you wish to continue.
Now that you know what Shared Story on Snapchat is and how to create one for yourself, here’s how to add Snaps to these Shared Stories. It is the same as posting a story on Snapchat. Here are the steps:
Note: The steps are the same whether you want to add to your created Shared Story or contribute to your friend’s Shared Story.
Step 1: Open Snapchat and choose or take a picture for the story.
Step 2: Tap and hold the Stories button > choose [Shared Story name] and tap Send.
- You can also tap Send to/Next and choose the Shared Stories from the next page.
- You can add a story by opening your profile > and tapping your shared story. Now, add or upload your media.
Users who have created the Shared Stories can view them from Avatar > Shared Story. Others can view the story from their Stories page. Here’s how to share a private story on Snapchat Shared Stories:
Step 1: Go to Snapchat and open the story. Now, tap the share button.
Note: If you have added the story, tap and hold the Views button and choose Share.

1. Can an unknown add me to Shared Story?
No. Shared Stories is a feature limited to your friend’s group. Hence, you won’t be added to any random Shared Stories by an unknown person.
2. How long does a Shared Story last?
Each shared story lasts as long as the other stories, which is only 24 hours.
3. What happens if you delete an already shared Snapchat Story?
The Snapchat story will be permanently removed when you hit the delete button. No one can view the story anymore. Even if someone attempts to repost the deleted content, they can’t access or view it.
