How Do Snapchat Groups Work?
Now that you have made the group let’s talk about how Snapchat groups work and operate. Here are some things you should know about Snapchat groups before you begin Snapping:
Similar to the feature in Snapchat stories, chats in the group chat will disappear after 24hrs. If you want to save a chat, press and hold down on the chat, you wish to save until it turns gray. Now your chat is saved!All the members in the group can view snaps or messages sent in the group. Once a member views the message, their name will appear below the chat to indicate that they have seen it. Much to all of our dismay, the Snapchat group chat feature can not be used to keep individual Snapstreaks alive. For your streak to survive, you will have to send snaps to those users individually.Options to edit the group name, add more members, change the notification settings, or leave the group can all be found by pressing down and holding the group chat on your “Friends” screen. A menu will appear to give you access to all of these settings.
