Ways to Save Videos On Snapchat from Others
The idea of ‘Snapchat’ which makes it unique is that the videos and photos on Snapchat disappear after a while. And, in addition to this, Snapchat does not offer any way of downloading the images or videos posted by others. You can screen shot the images, but the person, whose pictures you are screen shot-ing , will be informed that someone took their screen shot. And I am sure no one likes getting caught while they are stalking someone. (lol) For the video snaps however, we have a few tricks that might just work for you.

Easy? It is hard work, but if you really want to download the video, or want to record it, this way might just work without letting the other person know, unlike the ‘screen record’ option.
