Anyone else find deleting snap stories more awkward than it should be?

My daughter did this for me once and now i can't remember how to delete snap stories. Does it need anything turned on first?

worth knowing it only disappears for people who haven't opened it yet. anyone who already watched it saw it, and a screenshot is a screenshot. also check Memories afterwards, if you've got auto-save on snapchat keeps its own copy there and deleting the story doesn't touch that.

yes, because it's hidden one level deeper than you'd expect. you don't delete "the story", you open it from your profile and delete each snap inside it from its own menu. if you posted eight snaps that's eight deletes. honestly the less awkward route is just waiting. stories drop off after 24 hours on their own.
