Can Someone Watch My Story if I Remove them as a Friend?

When you remove friends on Snapchat, they can neither watch your private stories nor send you any charms. However, they will be able to watch those contents that are public. It depends on your privacy settings.

Will they Know If I Removed Them as a Friend?

The other person is not notified when you remove them from your friend list. However, they might get to know the truth when they start digging around about it or try sending you snaps. Snapchat never notifies the user whether they blocked or removed as a friend.

Can I Send Snaps to a Friend I Have Removed?

No, not. You cannot send snaps to the person when you remove a friend on Snapchat. Besides that, the person you have removed will also not be able to send you snaps or messages. But you can always exchange snaps with those contacts in your friend list. You can share photos and videos, and even save snaps on your mobile from Snapchat.
