Can Snapchat see your snaps and videos?
This is an age-old question. Well, for starters, any snaps you send on the app can only be viewed by the sender and receiver, meaning they are very secure. However, I have heard reports that Snapchat employees can view your snaps if they remain unopened for a long period. All in all, Snapchat is a relatively safe and secure app that comes with many filters and lenses to better your pictures. However, an extra layer of security is always a good step to prevent any prying eyes, and that’s where My Eyes Only comes in handy!
What is the My Eyes Only feature?
The My Eyes Only feature is a simple way to encrypt your snaps with a secure 4-digit password. Once added to this section, those snaps can only be accessed via the password on that Snapchat account itself. Further, you can add any snap or story from your memories into this section. You are also free to add and remove snaps to this feature whenever you like and as many times as you like. If this sounds interesting, read on to see how to enable it and use this feature as your photo vault on iPhone. Note: If you forget the password to My Eyes Only, you will not be able to recover snaps.

Move your Snapchat posts within My Eyes Only
If you already have snaps or stories in your memories or even iPhone’s camera roll, follow the below steps to move them to My Eyes Only. However, make sure you have followed the previous steps and set up the feature first. Your selected snaps have successfully been moved and can now be accessed only using your password! But wait, what if you decide to change the password or, worse, forget your password? Don’t worry! Read on to see exactly what you should do. Note: If you no longer want to hide a snap, long-press the snap → select Unhide.
How to change your My Eyes Only password
Snapchat only allows you to change the password of My Eyes Only if you remember the current one. This is different from resetting your password, which we will explain later in this article. In order to change your passcode, follow these steps: The new password you entered will now be used to access your secure snaps.
Can you reset your My Eyes Only password?
Yes! While there is no way to recover the password of My Eyes Only or access your snaps without the password, you can reset your password. However, if you reset your password, you will lose all snaps currently in My Eyes Only. Here’s how to do so: While resetting will result in data loss, it will let you use the feature again, so it may be worth doing.
