How to Remove Saved Snapchat Account on iPhone and Android

Most social media apps like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Snapchat remember your saved login info on the device. It’s a convenience feature that lets you log in with a single tap on your phone or desktop. Snapchat is no exception here. It’s quite popular among the young generation and saves your account details on the phone. Here’s how to remove your saved Snapchat account from other devices.

You can occasionally review your saved social media accounts. If you notice unusual login attempts or activities on your Snapchat account, remove unwanted devices from your account. If you have used your friend’s phone to check your Snapchat messages and stories, remove that device from your account.

1. Delete Saved Snapchat Login Information on Android

When you log out from Snapchat on Android, the app doesn’t ask you to delete saved login information. You need to remove the account from the login page. Here’s how.

Step 1: Select your account from the Snapchat home.

Step 2: Tap the Settings gear at the top-right corner.

Step 3: Scroll to Account Actions and select Log Out. Confirm the same.

Step 4: Snapchat remembers your login information and lets you log in with a single tap. Hit Remove account and tap Yes.

If Snapchat still saves your login information, you need to clear the app data and cache from the info menu.

Step 1: Find the Snapchat app icon on your phone and long tap on it. Open the app info menu.

Step 2: Select ‘Storage and cache.’

Step 3: Tap clear storage and clear cache.

You have completely removed all Snapchat data from your phone. You can now hand over the phone to your friend or co-worker. Clearing Snapchat cache is also an effective way to fix common app issues like Snapchat crashing, not working on Wi-Fi, etc.

You can also check your saved Snapchat login info on other devices. If you no longer have access to your friend’s phone, you can use your current phone to review and remove unnecessary devices.

Step 1: Open your Snapchat account and go to Settings.

Step 2: Scroll to Saved Login info.

Step 3: You can check a list of devices where your Snapchat login information is saved. Tap ‘-‘ icon beside a device and select Yes.

Security Tip: Enable Two-Factor Authentication on Snapchat

If you frequently notice unusual login attempts on Snapchat, enable 2FA for your account. It adds an extra layer of security to your account and helps prevent unauthorized access. Here’s what you need to do.

Step 1: Open Snapchat on your phone and go to your account. Select settings.

Step 2: Select Two-Factor Authentication. Tap Continue.

Step 3: You can use text verification or go with Authentication App. We advise using a dedicated 2FA app to generate authentication codes. Text verification isn’t safe due to growing SIM swapping tactics these days.
