With Ghost Mode enabled, you can still use Snap Map to see the locations of your friends all while your Bitmoji stands still, silently guarded by the ghost mask they hold in front of their face.Īlternately, you can rely on manually sending your location to someone if you want to keep your location private with the exception of a few moments each year. As described above, Ghost Mode gives you the option to hide your location for 3 hours, 24 hours, or until you turn off Ghost Mode manually, effectively hiding your location for good. You can’t turn the feature itself off, but you can turn your personal location off by enabling Ghost Mode.

Snapchat isn’t broadcasting your location 24/7. So, if you’re worried about your privacy but still want to use this feature, don’t worry too much. Snapchat doesn’t make it specific when this happens, but in our tests, locations never get older than seven hours before your Bitmoji disappears off the map, waiting for Snapchat to be reopened. It’s also worth noting that your Snap Map location will almost always expire overnight since the app’s location expires after several hours of inactivity.
