1 00:00:00,140 --> 00:00:06,800 In this short lecture I would like to show you how can you download the public stories of a snapshot 2 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:07,610 account? 3 00:00:08,330 --> 00:00:12,920 So we have already gathered the URL of Rishi Kabra Snapchat account. 4 00:00:12,950 --> 00:00:18,380 I'm going to copy it and open it in a new tab so we can see some information. 5 00:00:18,380 --> 00:00:25,190 We can see a profile picture if we right click on it and then click on Open Image a new tab, we can 6 00:00:25,190 --> 00:00:32,090 see that the image is very small and it's not helpful if we would like to search for it on search engines, 7 00:00:32,090 --> 00:00:35,510 which is something that we will cover in a future section. 8 00:00:35,870 --> 00:00:39,170 Another information that we can find, which is the location. 9 00:00:39,170 --> 00:00:46,010 We can see that he is in Chennai, India and we already know this by looking at his Facebook account 10 00:00:46,010 --> 00:00:47,570 and his LinkedIn account. 11 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,430 We can also see a description or biography and some stories. 12 00:00:52,430 --> 00:00:57,980 So in this lecture I'm just going to focus on how we can download the stories because there is nothing 13 00:00:57,980 --> 00:00:59,150 else we can do. 14 00:00:59,210 --> 00:01:06,330 So the first method that I'm going to show you to download all the stories is to right click somewhere 15 00:01:06,330 --> 00:01:08,160 and then click on inspect. 16 00:01:09,450 --> 00:01:13,830 And then you want to go to a network and then you will select media. 17 00:01:14,310 --> 00:01:17,730 And now I'm going to play all the stories that I found. 18 00:01:17,730 --> 00:01:19,890 For example I'm going to play this one. 19 00:01:19,890 --> 00:01:23,460 And now we have got the URL of this video. 20 00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:26,100 And now I'm going to click on this video. 21 00:01:26,100 --> 00:01:29,700 And this video consists of multiple stories. 22 00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:31,650 So let me wait a little bit. 23 00:01:31,980 --> 00:01:33,510 And now we have another story. 24 00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:34,620 We can wait for it. 25 00:01:34,620 --> 00:01:37,980 Or we can click in here to get the URLs. 26 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:43,440 And then I can click on this video or this photo to get the URL. 27 00:01:43,710 --> 00:01:50,760 And then I can go to spotlight and click in here and here to get the URL. 28 00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:53,910 Now we have all the URLs of the videos. 29 00:01:53,910 --> 00:01:57,540 And then I can click on any link to view the video. 30 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:03,060 So I'm going to save this video right mouse click and then save video as. 31 00:02:03,450 --> 00:02:05,120 And then I'm going to save it. 32 00:02:05,630 --> 00:02:07,910 Now let me play it, as you can see. 33 00:02:07,910 --> 00:02:12,890 And we can also see the time which was at 9:00, 48 minutes in the evening. 34 00:02:12,920 --> 00:02:19,880 Now, the problem is that we cannot see at which time this video or this story were made. 35 00:02:20,180 --> 00:02:27,140 So there is another method to view the metadata of this story, which is by going to a website called 36 00:02:27,140 --> 00:02:29,240 Snapchat Story Downloader. 37 00:02:29,330 --> 00:02:35,570 So all I have to do is just to copy the URL of the profile and then go to this website, add the link 38 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,190 and then click on search. 39 00:02:37,310 --> 00:02:43,910 And with this website, you'll be able to download all the pictures and videos that are public. 40 00:02:44,750 --> 00:02:47,030 For example I'm going to download this one. 41 00:02:47,030 --> 00:02:50,420 We can see the date but we cannot see the time. 42 00:02:50,420 --> 00:02:52,820 I'm going to download it from this website. 43 00:02:53,390 --> 00:02:59,390 And when we download it you will see the username first and then the time when this story were made. 44 00:02:59,420 --> 00:03:03,170 We can also see at which time it were made public. 45 00:03:03,530 --> 00:03:10,540 Now since we know that he is from Kolkata, I'm going to convert this time from UTC to the time in Kolkata. 46 00:03:10,570 --> 00:03:16,750 So here is a website called Savvy Time that will allow me to convert the time from UTC to the time in 47 00:03:16,750 --> 00:03:22,870 Kolkata, and all I have to do, just to add at which time this story were published. 48 00:03:22,870 --> 00:03:31,900 So I'm going to add the time which is at 4:00 and 20 minutes UTC time, and we can see that it was at 49 00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:35,980 9:00 and 50 minutes in the evening in Kolkata. 50 00:03:35,980 --> 00:03:37,870 So let me come back to the video. 51 00:03:38,260 --> 00:03:45,340 We can see that this screenshot or this video was also made at 9:00 and 48 minutes. 52 00:03:45,340 --> 00:03:52,060 So I assume he took the video first and then opened the app and then publish it on Snapchat, which 53 00:03:52,060 --> 00:03:54,010 might took him two minutes. 54 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,740 Another thing that I would like to show you is that if you have this link, which I'll put in the resources 55 00:03:59,740 --> 00:04:07,450 of this lecture, you can replace the username in here with the target username to get his Snapchat 56 00:04:07,450 --> 00:04:07,990 code. 57 00:04:07,990 --> 00:04:09,860 So I'm going to replace it with Rishi. 58 00:04:09,890 --> 00:04:11,930 Cobra 132. 59 00:04:11,930 --> 00:04:16,790 And then copy the link and then open a new tab and paste it, and then hit enter. 60 00:04:16,790 --> 00:04:22,280 And here is the snapcode of this person and I can save it if I want to. 61 00:04:22,460 --> 00:04:28,550 Now this will give us an ID how the person looks like, because there are many people who like to create 62 00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:29,690 their avatars. 63 00:04:29,690 --> 00:04:36,170 And in case we don't know how the person looks like, then this might give us an ID when we try to search 64 00:04:36,170 --> 00:04:42,830 for a person on Facebook or Instagram, etc. so we know that they have a beard and they wear glasses 65 00:04:42,830 --> 00:04:49,550 and they have long hair, etc. so in this lecture you have learned how you can download public stories 66 00:04:49,550 --> 00:04:57,080 on any Snapchat account manually and automatically, just in case the website got shut down and how 67 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,730 you can extract the metadata. 68 00:04:58,730 --> 00:05:05,120 If this was important for you, just in case you want to present this as an evidence in a court, you 69 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:10,580 have also learned how you can find or extract the snapcode of any Snapchat account.
