Snapchat stories are a fun way to share tidbits of your day-to-day life. When you post a story, everyone on your Snapchat Friend List can see that story. The best thing is that Snapchat allows you to check who has viewed your story.
But does it tell if someone rewatches your story?
Does your name go on top when you rewatch a story?

If you rewatch someone’s Snapchat story, does it tell them
Let’s start off by addressing the frequently asked question and the answer is a definite NO. Fortunately, Snapchat doesn’t reveal the identities of those who rewatch your stories otherwise it will create a sense of awkwardness among the users.
That said, Snapchat+ users are at an advantage due to a Rewatch Indicator feature. They get an eyes 👀 emoji under their story views that indicate that one or more people have replayed their story.
One thing worth mentioning is that the number count next to the 👀 emoji tells how many people have replayed your story, not how many times the story has been watched.
Luckily, Snapchat only shows general metrics like how many friends have rewatched your story, not which friend has rewatched your story.
All in all, you can’t trace the identity of those who rewatch your Snapchat story.
If you rewatch a Snapchat story, does your name go to the top
The next on the list is rather a long-held myth that suggests your name ascends to the viewer list when you watch someone’s story more than once.
Let’s face it, none of us wants to look overly curious or eager in the eyes of our peers and friends. Imagine someone shares a story featuring their new car, and they notice you watching the story multiple times. It’s awkward for no reason, isn’t it?
Snapchat’s clever algorithm arranges viewers in a reverse chronological manner. It means the recent ones are at the top, and the older ones are at the bottom.
The great news is that Snapchat doesn’t place you higher even when you watch a story trillions of times. Instead, Snapchat registers your view only once. Afterward, you’re free to watch the story as many times as you want.
