How do I unpin my AI on Snapchat?

Short answer

Swipe right to the Chat screen, press and hold My AI, tap Chat & Notification Settings, then tap Unpin Conversation. That drops it from the top of your feed. To hide the thread entirely, long-press again and tap Clear from Chat Feed. Both are free — no Snapchat+ needed.

Why — the first-principles explanation

My AI is a pinned conversation, which is why it sits stuck at the top of your Chat feed no matter how many other chats you have. Pinning is just a display setting that reserves that top slot. Unpinning simply releases it, so My AI drops down and behaves like a normal conversation you can scroll past or ignore.

All the controls live in one place: the long-press menu. Pressing and holding any conversation — including My AI — opens 'Chat & Notification Settings,' where the pin toggle lives. This is the same menu you'd use to mute or manage any friend's chat, so nothing about My AI is special here.

If unpinning isn't enough and you want it out of sight completely, the next step in the same menu is 'Clear from Chat Feed,' which removes the whole thread. Both actions are free for all users today. Just remember two limits: clearing doesn't erase the data you shared (that's 'Clear My AI Data'), and My AI can re-pin itself to the top if you message it again.

An example that makes it click

Think of pinning like a magnet holding one note at the very top of your fridge. Unpinning is just taking the magnet off — the note slides down among the others instead of always being front and center.

And if you want the note gone from the fridge entirely, you take it down completely — that's 'Clear from Chat Feed.' But you didn't shred what's written on it; the words still exist in a drawer somewhere until you actually throw them out.

How to do it

  1. Open Snapchat and swipe right from the Camera to the Chat screen.
  2. Press and hold on the 'My AI' conversation.
  3. Tap 'Chat & Notification Settings'.
  4. Tap 'Unpin Conversation' to release it from the top of the feed.
  5. Optional: long-press again and tap 'Clear from Chat Feed' to hide the whole thread.

How do you unpin My AI on Snapchat? It's quick. My AI is pinned to the top of your Chat feed by default, and unpinning just releases that top spot. Start by swiping right from the Camera to your Chat screen. Find My AI at the top, then press and hold on it. A menu pops up — tap Chat and Notification Settings. In there, tap Unpin Conversation. Done. Now My AI drops down and acts like any other chat instead of sitting front and center. Want it fully out of sight? Long-press it again and choose Clear from Chat Feed to hide the whole thread. Both of these are free — you do not need Snapchat Plus. Two quick reminders: unpinning or clearing doesn't erase what you told My AI — for that, use Clear My AI Data in settings. And if you message My AI again, it'll jump right back to the top.
