If you’re wondering how to see if someone has taken a screenshot of your Snapchat story, there’s an easy way to find out.

Snapchat is used by millions of people around the world every day, who use the social media app to connect with their friends through a range of available features.

The story feature is one that has been immensely popular on the platform, allowing users to upload a photo or video that will be accessible on their profile. These posts automatically disappear after a 24-hour period, or earlier if they are manually deleted.
