You can't see who screenshotted your Snapchat story mainly because of Snapchat's privacy and policy settings. Here are the key reasons:
- Non-friends or non-followers : If the person who took the screenshot is not your friend or follower on Snapchat, you won't be able to see their identity. Snapchat only shows screenshot notifications for friends or followers who view your story
- Public Profile Stories : If you posted your story to a "Public Profile" rather than your private "My Story," Snapchat may notify you that a screenshot occurred but does not reveal who took it. This is a change linked to newer updates and the way public stories are handled differently from private ones
- Snapchat does not store screenshot data : Snapchat's system does not keep a record of screenshots taken. The screenshot information is stored locally on the device that took it, not on Snapchat's servers. This design is intentional to protect user privacy and prevent misuse
- Users can disable screenshot notifications : Some users may have disabled screenshot notifications in their settings, meaning you won't be alerted or shown who screenshotted your story
- Limits and technical reasons : Snapchat may have limits on how many screenshot notifications it shows or may not show screenshots taken from stories shared by others (e.g., if your story is featured on someone else's story and that person’s viewers screenshot it, you won't see those screenshots)
In summary, Snapchat prioritizes privacy and limits screenshot visibility mostly to your friends or followers and private stories. For public stories or non-friends, you won't see who screenshotted your story. This is why you often cannot see who took a screenshot of your Snapchat story
