Snapchat already has a secure memory for storing its subscribers' documents. But to better satisfy Snapchatters, a locked "My Eyes Only" option has been designed so that they can keep their most private memories. This feature is one of Snapchat's built-in options.

My Eyes Only is a very interesting feature that you should make use of. To keep your Snaps and Stories safe from prying eyes, simply store them in the My Eyes Only option. What's more, you can access it by following a few simple configuration steps.

Your data will be locked in this folder using a password set by you. However, it is important to note that you must not lose the password. If you lose it, your data cannot be retrieved.
