All of us want to make new friends and be in passionate relationships, but is that always possible? Not really. While everybody has somebody they feel blessed to have, not every person that comes into your life is going to leave you with a pleasant experience.
And when you go through such an unpleasant experience, it can take some time to bounce back from it. The first step to doing so involves severing any connection that could help them reach out to you. This involves deleting their number and unfriending them on all social media platforms.
And if this person is still persistent, you can even opt to block them. Because why should you have to deal with all the drama? Your job is only to focus on healing yourself, and their constant messages aren’t helping it.
If you use Snapchat, blocking them on the platform is a must. But how will this action affect your older messages? Will they be lost forever? Or will they still be saved in your chat history? These are the questions that we’ll attempt to answer in today’s blog. Ready to learn their answers? Let’s go!
Does Blocking Someone on Snapchat Delete Messages?
Among all social media platforms, Snapchat was the first one to have launched disappearing messages: messages that came with a ticking clock and would disappear right after you read them. Then, the platform launched a setting that allowed Snapchatters to extend the lifeline of their messages to 24 hours.
Recently, another feature was rolled out, which enabled users to save messages permanently if they wanted to. Ever since its launch, this feature has been used widely across the platform. This is because, as humans, we like to cling to things that bring us joy, even if they’re merely messages.
So, it’s natural for you to save the messages of someone you enjoy talking to. But when things take a sour turn between you two, so much so that you’re ready to block them, what will happen to those messages?
We’re sorry to disappoint you, but if you block someone, their entire chat will be removed from your Chat tab, including those messages that you saved. Will these messages be deleted forever? That’s a question we’ll talk about later in the blog.
Does Blocking Someone on Snapchat Delete Messages You Saved?
We just told you that the act of blocking someone would remove their chat from your Snapchat. Aren’t you curious if the same thing will happen to their account? Because that’s how it works on other social media platforms, doesn’t it?
Well, Snapchat like not like other social media platforms; a quality that both flatters and annoys its users at times. When it comes to blocking, the app will remove the chat only from the blocker’s account.
If the person you’ve blocked has saved any of your messages, they’ll still be intact in their Chat tab. The only difference will be that in place of your bitmoji, they’ll see an empty silhouette.
