If you have been struck by a great idea, to be published within your Snapchat "Story", which however would not have the same impact if there was a time delay between the publication of the related snaps, this article is the solution for you. it's useful, as it shows you how to post multiple snaps within the "My Story" section. The trick is to simply create and publish all snaps (both images and videos) while the device is in "Offline" or "Airplane" mode. After creating the complete series of snaps, simply reactivate your data or Wi-Fi connection, to have them uploaded to Snapchat's servers at the same time.
Steps
Part 1 of 2: Creating Multiple Offline Snaps
Step 1. Activate "Offline" or "Airplane Use" mode
The only way to be able to post multiple images or videos within your Snapchat "Story" is to create all the snaps while the device is not connected to any network, ie it is completely offline. The simplest way to prevent the device from connecting to the internet is to activate the "Offline" (Android systems) or "Airplane use" (iOS systems) mode.
- IOS systems: swipe the screen, from bottom to top, to access the "Control Center" panel, then tap the airplane icon
- Android systems: Swipe the screen from top to bottom to access the notification bar and quick settings panel, then tap the airplane icon.
Step 2. Launch the Snapchat application
If you are already logged in to your account, you will be automatically redirected to the main screen of the application, the one that shows the view taken by the device's camera.
Step 3. Create a new snap (take a photo or record a video)
Press the circular shutter button (the larger of the two), located in the center of the bottom of the screen, to take a snapshot; while if you want to capture a video, hold it down.
If you wish, you can emphasize your snaps by adding emojis, text, drawings or graphic effects
Step 4. Tap the "History" icon
This way the newly created snap will be added to your "Story", but since the device is not connected to the internet it will not be able to be published on Snapchat's servers. In other words, it will simply be appended to the existing snaps, to be uploaded as soon as the smartphone or tablet is back online. Here's how to add a snap to your "Story":
- After creating the snap, press the "Story" button at the bottom left of the screen. It features a square with a small "+" in the upper right corner.
- If you see the "Add to Your Story" message appear on the screen, simply press the "Add" button.
- The Snapchat app will automatically redirect you to the "Stories" screen, where you will see the "No internet connection" warning message appear.
Step 5. Create another snap
Press the circular button at the bottom of the "Stories" screen to return to the main page of the application, where the view taken by the device's camera is shown. At this point create another snap as you normally do (take a photo or record a video according to your needs).
Step 6. Add the new snap to your "Story"
Follow the same steps you took to publish the previous snap, ie press the "Story" button to add it to your "Story". This message will also be appended to the previous one for uploading to Snapchat servers as soon as the internet connection is restored.
Step 7. Continue adding more snaps to your "Story"
Don't be in a hurry, take your time to create perfect snaps. Users who follow you on Snapchat will have the opportunity to view these snaps all at once, without having to wait for the next one to be created and loaded. When you restore the internet connection of the device, the snaps will be published at the same time automatically and quickly, respecting the order in which they were created.
Part 2 of 2: Publishing the Snaps
Step 1. Disable your device from "Offline" or "Airplane Use" mode
Now that the snaps to publish are all ready, it's time to restore the internet connection. By tapping the airplane icon again (the same one you used before), the "Offline" or "Airplane use" mode will be deactivated and the device should automatically connect to the internet.
If your device fails to automatically connect to the Wi-Fi or cellular network, perform the procedure manually, as you normally would
Step 2. Swipe your finger across the screen to the left
Do this from the main screen of the Snapchat app (the one where the view taken by the device's camera is shown). This way you will have access to the "Stories" page.
Step 3. Tap the three-dot icon (⁝) next to your "Story"
The complete list of all snaps waiting to be published will be displayed. Each of the messages will be accompanied by the words "Touch to retry".
Step 4. Select the last snap in the list
Remember that the last message in the list is the first you created, so you will need to publish it from the bottom of the list. As soon as it is selected, the snap in question will be immediately published in your "Story". Once the upload is complete, the chosen item will no longer be visible in the list.
Step 5. Select the remaining snaps to post them to your "Story"
Again you will have to start from the bottom of the snap list, since the last one at the bottom is the next message that will have to be loaded to respect the original creation sequence. Keep posting the various snaps starting from the bottom and moving up until you have processed all of them.
Step 6. Look at your "Story"
Now that you've finished publishing all the snaps you've created, it's time to check the outcome of your efforts. Select the "My Story" item located at the top of the "Stories" screen to view all the snaps currently present.
- If you need to delete a snap from your "Story", swipe up on the screen while it is displayed, then select the trash can icon.
- To save the entire content of your "Story", press the "⁝" button next to "My Story", then select the down arrow icon.
Advice
- Remember that any snap you post in the "My Story" section will only be visible for the next 24 hours.
- You can view the complete list of all users who have viewed your "Story". To do this, simply select any of the snaps on the "Stories" page, then swipe up on the screen.
