Snapchat is an application that stands out for its privacy settings between users. The idea is that the messages, images, and videos you send will vanish after 24 hours. And so, when one of the two participants in a chat takes a screenshot, Snapchat launches a warning so that all users are aware. Is it possible to avoid this behavior? Here are some tips on how to take screenshots with Snapchat without being detected.

Use another cell phone

A very simple method to capture the screen in a Snapchat chat without anyone noticing is to use another cell phone. Of course, it also works with a camera or tablet. In fact, any external device that is capable of taking a photo will do the job.

Use the native screen recording function

Another method that makes Snapchat capture undetectable is the screen recording feature. Many manufacturers include it in their customization layers. Simply activate it and go to the Snapchat chat. Scroll through it until all the necessary content is recorded. Then, use the video to consult the chat or take screenshots of it if necessary.

Use the LongShot application

In case you do not have this feature on your device, use an application such as LongShot. You can download it for free and securely with the link below.

Once installed, open it and tap on the shutter.
