How to Delete Saved Snapchat Messages

You might often want to delete a conversation you had with someone.

You might often want to delete a conversation you had with someone. This is very easy to do as I shall explain. However, do note that this does not delete the messages on your recipient���s device.

Step 1: Head to your settings page

On opening Snapchat, you will most likely find yourself on the main page which displays the camera. Swipe up once. This will open your main control panel which will have the big, yellow ���ghost��� icon in the middle and the three options which say ���Added me���, ���Add Friends��� and so on. Look for the icon that looks like a gear and tap on it. This will get you to your settings page which contains options on how to delete saved Snapchat messages. Most of the times, when you want to delete or clear something, you���ll need to go through this page!

Step 2: Click on ���Clear conversations���

Clicking on the gear icon will open up two options. The first will read ���clear conversations��� and the second would allow you to log out. Tap once on the first option. This will open access to a page where you can manage your conversations.

Step 3: Deleting messages one conversation at a time

As you tap the above-mentioned option, a page labelled ���Clear��� should pop up. This will contain the list of names of the friends you have exchanged messages with recently. Beside their names is an icon shaped like an ���X���. Tap on the corresponding ���X��� to clear all messages with that person. Beware that this would only clear your record of the conversation. The other person will still have all the messages saved in his or her device. It is best to message that person to clear his or her message log as well, if you want total deletion.

Step 4: Deleting all messages

Often, you would want to just clear out your entire log. Thankfully, you do not have to do this one conversation at a time. Look for the ���clear all��� option on the top right-hand corner of the ���Clear��� screen. Tapping on this once would get rid of your entire conversation log.
