Though some have been having fun with the chatbot, others want it immediately gone. Here’s how to remove the Snapchat AI from both Android and iPhone if you can remove it without Snapchat Plus.
The Snapchat chatbot, My AI, is only just being rolled out to thousands of users, and people are already having their fun. Testing its capabilities, people have already wanted to know how to jailbreak Snapchat AI, however, many just want the feature gone.
If that’s you, then we can tell you how.
How To Remove Snapchat AI On Android And iPhone
Unfortunately, you have to be subscribed to Snapchat+ to remove My AI. This is because the app wants lots of people to use it so that it can gather as much information as possible.
However, for those who are subscribed, there are a couple of different ways to get rid of the chatbot from your feed.
Both methods work for Android and iPhone, so you won’t have to do anything differently depending on the model of your phone.
First method:
- Go to your chat by swiping right on the camera screen.
- Press and hold on ‘My AI’.
- Click ‘Chat Settings’.
- Tap ‘clear from chat feed.’
This will then remove it from the feed and will only come back if you start a conversation again.
Second method:
- Head to your profile.
- Tap the cog icon to open settings.
- Click ‘clear conversations’
- Select the cross next to My AI.
This will also remove it from your feed.
Can You Remove Snapchat AI WIthout Snapchat Plus?
No, currently the only way to remove the artificial intelligence feature is to subscribe to the paid version of the app.
However, Snapchat have said that those who have Snapchat Plus have “early access,” meaning it will come to regular users in the future. Unfortunately, it isn’t known when, but rest assured the ability to remove it is coming.
If you’re desperate to remove Snapchat AI, you can subscribe to the service for $3.99/£3.99 a month. Not only will you be able to get rid of My AI, but you’ll also have access to other exclusive features such as the Snapchat solar system order.
The fact you have to pay to remove the chatbot has annoyed users, who have shared their frustration on Reddit.
“You know something’s mad sus if you have to pay to REMOVE a feature,” someone commented, clearly not trusting the process. “Genuinely so mad about this update,” another agreed.
Some have said that blocking My AI has removed it from their feed, but this only seems to work sporadically. It’s worth a try anyway if you have the regular version of the app.
It may be a little while before you can remove Snapchat AI for free. So, you can either have some fun with it whilst it’s still around or just leave it alone until you can get rid of it.
