Snapchat has millions of active users who go on to the platform every day to share photos, messages, and stories with their friends, and to view the range of content available. The app also has a feature called Snap Maps, which as the name suggests, allows users to see where their friends are located using their icons on a map. While this can be a useful feature for some, understandably you may not want all, or any, of your contacts to have access to your whereabouts. Fortunately, you can turn off your location on Snapchat. Turn off your location on Snapchat Turning your location off on Snapchat is an easy task, and you are able to decide whether you turn it off for all users or keep it turned on for a select few. Simply do as follows: Open Snapchat. &#8211; Click on your profile in the top left, then the gear icon in the top right to go to your settings. &#8211; Scroll down to \u2018Privacy Controls,\u2019 and click on \u2018See My Location.\u2019 &#8211; Tap the slider next to \u2018Ghost Mode\u2019 to switch it on. When this is enabled, your contacts won\u2019t be able to see your location, and your Ghost Trail will be cleared. &#8211; If you want some people to still be able to see your location, click on \u2018Only These Friends\u2026\u2019 and select the people you want to include. &#8211; If you want to learn more about how to use Snapchat, you can check out some of our other guides, including how to allow camera access on Snapchat and how to make a private story on Snapchat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to turn off your Snapchat location Unsplash: Jonas LeupeIf you\u2019re out somewhere and don\u2019t want your Snapchat contacts to know, you have the option to turn off your location on Snapchat to keep your whereabouts private.
