Snapchat is a social networking app where you can share photos and videos with different animations. One of the basic concepts of Snapchat is that transmitted images and messages are available to the recipient only for a short time before becoming completely inaccessible.
Snapchat saves a record of everyone you snap with, chat with, or add to your “Recents”. But sometimes it can be inconvenient to keep this record, especially if you’re communicating with a lot of people. Or if you have a record you don’t want anyone else to see. For some people, though, take solace in the fact that the app automatically deletes snapshots and chats, the record always remains.
So, here is how to clear recent activity in Snapchat.

How to clear recent activity in Snapchat on Windows and Mac
