Snapchat introduced My AI, a chatbot powered by OpenAI’s GPT technology, to enhance user engagement with AI-powered conversations. While some users appreciate the feature, others find it intrusive and want to remove it. If you’re looking for ways to get rid of My AI, this guide will walk you through the steps based on whether you have a free account or a Snapchat+ subscription.
Can You Remove Snapchat AI?
The ability to remove My AI depends on your account type:
-
Snapchat+ Users: Have the option to remove or unpin My AI from their chat feed.
-
Free Snapchat Users: Cannot remove My AI but can hide, mute, or block it.
For Snapchat+ Users: How to Remove My AI Completely
If you’re a Snapchat+ subscriber, you can permanently remove My AI from your chat feed.
- Step 1: Open Snapchat -- Launch the Snapchat app on your device.
- Step 2: Go to Chat Screen -- Swipe right from the camera screen or tap the Chat icon at the bottom.
- Step 3: Remove My AI -- Long press on the My AI chat.
- Tap “Chat Settings”.
- Select “Clear from Chat Feed” to remove it permanently.
This will delete My AI from your chat feed, but you can still re-enable it later if needed.
For Snapchat+ Users: How to Unpin My AI
If you don’t want to remove My AI but just unpin it from the top, follow these steps:
- Open Snapchat and go to the Chat screen.
- Long press on My AI.
- Select “Chat Settings”.
- Tap “Unpin Conversation”.
This moves My AI lower in the chat list instead of keeping it pinned at the top.
For Free Snapchat Users: How to Hide My AI
If you don’t have Snapchat+, you cannot fully remove My AI, but you can mute or hide it.
-
Option 1: Mute My AI Notifications
- Open Snapchat.
- Swipe right to go to Chat.
- Long press on My AI.
- Tap “Chat Settings”.
- Select “Message Notifications” and set it to Silent.
-
Option 2: Hide My AI Using ‘Clear Chat’
- Go to Chat.
- Long press My AI.
- Select “Chat Settings”.
- Tap “Clear from Chat Feed”.
This removes My AI from the chat feed, but it may return if you interact with it again.
How to Delete My AI Chat History
Even after removing My AI, Snapchat still stores past conversations. To erase My AI data:
- Open Snapchat and tap your Bitmoji/Profile icon.
- Tap ⚙️ Settings (top-right corner).
- Scroll down to “Privacy Controls”.
- Select “Clear Data” > “Clear My AI Data”.
- Confirm deletion.
This ensures all past My AI chats are erased from Snapchat servers.
Alternative: Blocking My AI
If you don’t want My AI in your chat but can’t remove it, you can block it:
- Open Snapchat and go to Chat.
- Long press My AI.
- Tap “Manage Friendship”.
- Select “Block”.
- Blocking My AI stops interactions but does not remove it from the chat list.
Final Thoughts
Snapchat’s My AI is an integrated feature that cannot be completely removed for free users. However, Snapchat+ subscribers have the option to remove or unpin it. If you’re a free user, your best options are hiding, muting, or blocking My AI to minimize its presence.
By following these steps, you can take control of your Snapchat experience and reduce unwanted interactions with My AI.
