When you open the snap, performing a screenshot will cause the display to flash for a moment. On iOS, the screenshot key combo also depends on your device, with any device with a home button using the power and home button combo, and any device without a home button using volume up and power instead. Keep in mind you only have a certain amount of time-typically up to ten seconds-to screenshot the snap displayed on your screen, though some users set their snaps to loop until the snap has been closed.

Typically, most Android devices use the Volume Down & Power, though if your phone has a physical home key (like Samsung’s flagship devices up to the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge), you’ll want to tap Power & Home. Once you’ve received a snap you want to save to your device, prepare to perform the screenshot function on your device. Start by logging into Snapchat if you haven’t already. The best way to capture snaps sent to you is to perform a system screenshot on your phone-a method we’ll cover in detail below-but short of that? Well, we have a few recommendations, so keep reading for more information. This makes “Snapchat Saver” apps a difficult proposition, as Snapchat continues to crackdown on applications that bypass restrictions and break their terms of service. The problem: plenty of them have in-app purchases, advertisements, feature unfixed bugs and issues with crashes, and worst of all, can even occasionally cause your Snapchat account to be locked down for a limited time. Both iOS and Android are filled with applications that promise to allow users to bypass these notifications and keep your actions secret. So how do you get around this limitation? Well, it’s not easy.

And while they can’t exactly stop you from saving the snap, you can be sure as hell they know you have a copy of their photo. Whether you screenshot a conversation thread, a photo or video, or someone’s story, with Snapchat notifying them to your recording.

It’s incredibly useful, though Snapchat’s obviously thought ahead.

Whether you’re on iOS or Android, your phone always has the option to record a screenshot. Of course, you can save the snaps others send you. Not even you, unless you have the foresight to save your snaps to your own “memories” option. Once they’re gone, they’re gone-no one can have access to your content any longer. Even public posts, called “Stories,” are only available for twenty-four hours. Temporary shares on Snapchat allow you to send a photo or a video to a friend, and within ten seconds, it’s gone forever. Snapchat is the immensely popular disposable social network.
