This wikiHow teaches you how to snap a snap to the “Our Stories” segment, Snapchat's public montage that focuses on specific themes, holidays, and events.

Step 3. Retrieve the post
Touch the shutter button at the bottom of the screen to take a photo, or hold down the button to record a video.
- Snapchat selected the best and most relevant posts for the “Our Stories” segment. When creating a post, make sure the content is entertaining, and fits the topic on a common “Story” theme.
