How to make a private story on Snapchat
Creating a private Snapchat story is pretty easy, but it does differ from the typical process of sending a Snap in a few key ways.
Here's how to make a private Snapchat story:
1. Open the Snapchat app and log in, if necessary.
2. Tap your profile icon (or bitmoji, or story thumbnail) in the top-left corner of the screen.
3. Select the button that says "+ Private Story" or "+ Custom Story" in the "Stories" section. Snapchat may ask you to confirm that you want to make a private story - just tap "Private Story" again.

Pick who you want to share your private story with.
5. Take your photo or video, edit and add stickers or tags, as desired.
6. Hit the send button (it's the paper airplane icon).
Whoever you specify during the posting process will be able to see your public and private stories. Android users will see them separately, while $4 users will see them mixed together.
And, of course, people who don't make the send list won't know either way that you've created private stories.
