How to Save Videos in SnapChat

You’ve probably recorded many videos on your Snapchat account that’ll make fantastic memories. Before you share them with your other Snapchat friends, you should probably consider saving them first.

If you want to rewatch them the next time you scroll through your Snapchat Gallery, saving your favorites is a good idea so they’re easily accessible.

By the end of this short and informative guide, you’ll learn how to save your videos and some Snapchat features that everyone should know.

Saving Your Best Snap Videos

When you finish recording the best Snapchat video, it’s time to save it. The process is simple and will take you only a few seconds. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Long press on the circle for recording/taking a photo.
   
2. In the lower-left corner, press on the arrow that’s facing down.
   
3. You’ll get a pop-up that says, “Saved!”
   

Important note:

You must click the arrow before forwarding the videos to your friends. If you send the recording before you save it, you can count it as lost.

Saving Videos That You Receive

Just as you can save the ones you record, you can also save videos you receive from your Snapchat friends.

When you enter your chat and open the video from one of your friends, you’ll see a little arrow pointing down in the bottom right corner. Click on that, and your video will be saved in the chat.

Save in Chat vs. Save to Camera Roll

You’re not limited to just saving the video in your Snapchat Gallery or chat. You can save it in your Photo Gallery as well.

To do that, you have to:

1. Enter the chat and long press on the video.
   
2. Select “Save to Camera Roll.”
   
3. Go to your Photo Gallery and check the Snapchat folder. You’ll find your video there.
