So, in this guide, we will show you how the new “Story View notifications” feature works on Snapchat.

What are Story View Notifications on Snapchat?

Story view notifications is a brand-new Snapchat feature, exclusive to Snapchat Plus subscribers. As the name reveals, enabling it will see the app sends you notifications whenever someone views your Snapchat Story. You just have to pick the person for whom you want to be notified.

In case, you want to keep things mysterious, you can turn on the Make private toggle. This won’t show the name of the person who views your story.
