It depends on the settings of the platform you're using. Some social media platforms allow you to control who can see your story, and you can choose to limit it to only close friends.
On most platforms, if the setting is for only close friends to see the story, then that's how it works. But sometimes, there can be glitches. For example, on Instagram, if there's a problem with the app's cache or a temporary server issue, it might show the story to someone who isn't on the close friends list. However, these are rare occurrences.
No. In a well - designed social media system, only the people you've specifically designated as close friends should be able to see the close friends' story. These platforms are usually built with privacy in mind, and they use various security mechanisms to prevent unauthorized access. But again, if you accidentally share your account details or if the platform has some sort of malfunction, things could go wrong.
On some platforms, by default, non - close friends may be able to see your story. For instance, on Snapchat, if you haven't adjusted your story settings, your story could be visible to a wide range of people including those who are not your close friends. But usually, there are privacy controls available. You can often go into the settings and customize who can view your story. This might include options like 'only my best friends', 'friends except...', or 'custom'. If you select a more restrictive option that excludes non - close friends, then they won't be able to see it.
No. Snapchat is designed to protect your privacy. When you post a story specifically for close friends, it is encrypted and only those on your close friends list can view it. However, it's important to keep your account secure, for example, by using a strong password, as if someone gains unauthorized access to your account, they could potentially view your close friends' stories.
Generally, you can't view screenshots on Story Close Friends. The platform is designed more for sharing real-time updates and not for showing screenshots.
In most social media platforms, you usually can't directly see exactly which close friends have viewed your story. But some apps might give you general indicators or stats.
