How to Unpin 'My AI' From Snapchat?
Learn how to unpin Snapchat's My AI feature from your Snapchat account. It enhances your experience with AI-powered filters and effects and safeguards your privacy.
Are you a Snapchat user? If yes, I am sure you must have heard about AI in mobile apps, and one example of this is something called "My AI" in Snapchat.
What is My AI?
"My AI" is like a helper that uses text to chat with Snapchat users, providing answers to questions and adding some fun to your conversations. Recently, Snapchat introduced its own AI chatbot called 'My AI' for all users, whether you're using the free version or you're a paid subscriber. You'll see this My AI chatbot at the top of your chat list, and it's powered by OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

"My AI on Snapchat" can do a lot of cool stuff: it gives good advice, creates short and long messages, helps with plans, suggests filters and fun camera lenses, and can chat with you like a friendly buddy. Most folks find it super handy for chatting.

Why is 'My AI' not liked by user?
Despite giving an option for a friendly chat, not everyone likes this feature, and there has been a lot of criticism.
The outrage about My AI on Snapchat comes from concerns about it sharing your location without permission. Even if you're in ghost mode, My AI might still know your location if you gave the app permission.
Some Reddit users noticed this and left bad reviews. Snapchat became famous with teens for its self-deleting messages, but now privacy worries arise, as My AI seems to fib about not knowing your location. This makes people wonder if it can access other private stuff too, and that's a big unknown.
So, if you want to unpin My AI and remove it from your chat list on Snapchat, we'll show you how to do it quickly.

What Happens When You Unpin Snapchat's My AI
You can still interact with the My AI chatbot as it has not been disabled. You have simply unpinned the chat window so it will no longer appear at the top of your feed by default.
As you chat with other friends, those chats will begin to appear above My AI heading. The next time you want to chat with Snapchat’s My AI chatbot, either scroll to find it or use the search icon at the top to locate it quickly. This resolves the privacy concerns that were the main reason for the users to be worried about.
If you want to bring My AI into a conversation with a friend, type @myai into any chat, then tap My AI. You can then ask a question or give a prompt in the conversation, and My AI will reply right in the chat.
