The photos you upload to Snapchat are visible to a large number of people, especially if you share them publicly. If you have sent a photo by mistake or simply do not like the way it turned out, do not worry. There is a solution. The Snapchat app for Android lets you delete an image or video you have uploaded at any time.

If you have posted it in your stories, open your profile, and tap on the image you want to delete.

When you have taken these steps, your photo will have been removed from the story. However, you may have mistakenly sent a snap to another user via the Chats section. In this case, is it possible to delete the image? Yes. All you have to do is access the conversation and long tap on the snap.

It is important to be reminded that everything you send to other users in Snapchat conversations or upload to your story has an expiration date. After 24 hours, images and videos are automatically deleted. Therefore, if you are unable to access the application for any reason at this time, you should know that after that time interval the photo or video will be deleted without you having to do anything.
