One of the newest features on Snapchat is the ability to delete a message. If you accidentally send a message to someone and don’t want them to see it, you now have the option to delete the message. This is only a possibility if the message has not yet been read by the recipient. With the addition of this shady new feature, Snapchat users have begun wondering if it is possible to see if someone has deleted a message.
Here is what we know…
Can You Tell If Someone Deletes A Message on Snapchat?
Just like every other new feature on Snapchat, users have a lot of questions. One of the biggest questions being asked right now is “can you tell if someone deletes a message on Snapchat?” To find the answer to this question we conducted a little experiment. It was found that when you delete a message on Snapchat the recipient will not receive any notification that the message was deleted. However, if a message is deleted in a group chat on Snapchat, everyone in the chat will be notified that something was deleted. In other words, be cautious about what you send in your favorite groups because sometimes deleting a snap can cause more drama than you expect.
Although there is no notification if someone deletes a message on Snapchat, there is a way to tell if a message has been deleted.
How to Tell If Someone Deletes a Message on Snapchat
Although you do not receive a notification if someone deletes a message on Snapchat, there is a way that you can tell. When someone begins typing a Snapchat message, you will receive a notification that says that they are typing; you then receive a separate notification that informs you that they have sent a message. If you receive the notification stating that a message has been sent to you, you should expect to see a message in your chat.
Right?
If you receive a notification that someone has sent a message to you on Snapchat the message should be there. If you check the chat and there is no message, the person likely deleted the message. Whether or not they said something that they didn’t want you to find out about or see is up to you to find out.
