Because we don’t always want to share our adventures with everyone in our Snapchat contact list, Snapchat introduced “Private Stories.” This feature lets you choose the audience for your Snapchat stories. But what if you don’t want to be on anyone’s private story list?

Yes, you can. If you are tired of looking at the same Snaps over and over again, there is a way out of your misery. You can always leave someone’s private story. Once you leave someone’s private story, not only will you no longer be able to view their private stories, you will also not know if they have posted a private story or not.

To leave a private story, you’ll first need to find the story in the Story section of the app. Launch the Snapchat app and swipe left. If you can easily find the user whose story you want to leave, all the better. If not, use the search bar at the top to search for the person’s name.
