Full Outage Map

Snapchat is a mobile app that allows users to send and receive "self-destructing" photos and videos. Photos and videos taken with the app are called snaps. The sender of a message is able to determine the period that a message can be viewed by setting a limit between one and ten seconds.

Problems in the last 24 hours

The graph below depicts the number of Snapchat reports received over the last 24 hours by time of day. When the number of reports exceeds the baseline, represented by the red line, an outage is determined.

    I’m sick of the Chinese people who run Snapchat trying to invade my privacy and shove their way of life down my throat with Ads

  • dnl4dnl
    Daniel (@dnl4dnl) reported

    Snapchat was reportedly testing a simple update that could’ve helped fix this imbalance — but it was canceled, according to circulating news. That decision left creators feeling even more powerless, while problematic content keeps spreading.

    Watched ‘reels’ from Snapchat for 2 minutes and now I have trust issues with everyone.

    She avoids opening Snapchat when she''s feeling down, knowing that seeing everyone''s highlight reel can be discouraging.

    @SnapchatSupport My hacked account was confirmed as mine and you promised to delete it (I have proof), but now you’re refusing to help or review the evidence. I have two accounts under my name/email (one uses Face ID). This is a security issue. Please escalate. #snapchat

    No action has been taken from @Snapchat @snapchatsupport why you people are not understanding my problem my new device just got banned and my id with more than 1 crore snapscore and lots of memories have been locked please take some action or should I appeal it in higher level.

  • zainaljrock
    o kumar (@zainaljrock) reported

    @anabebrooks @snapchatsupport Support can be unhelpful when it comes to ban appeals; @dion_techs is different; they took my problem seriously and worked with me to find a solution, even when the official channels seemed unwilling to help

  • ArnoldGils66843
    Arnold Gilson (@ArnoldGils66843) reported

    He had trouble balancing his time spent on Snapchat with his other interests and commitments, needing more self control.

    @snapchatsupport i've reached out to snapchat support via email multiple times only to be ignored. my account was erroneously banned and i really need help in recovering it. i have not violated any guidelines (yes, i have thoroughly reviewed them). someone please help me.

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    No official evidence supports a difference between "Sent a Snap" and "Sent You a Snap" on Snapchat. Both can appear for individual or group snaps, per sources like SimplyMac and Snapchat's help pages. Some users speculate "Sent You a Snap" feels more personal, but this lacks confirmation and is unreliable. Checking snap content or scores may offer clues, but these methods aren't definitive.

    @_izzyfranklin @snapchatsupport If support’s just sending bot replies and your account was locked for no reason, try reaching out to @AJTheTech. He’s helped many people unlock their Snapchat accounts when support didn’t help.

  • MancerAI_
    MancerAI (@MancerAI_) reported

    Thanks. Yeah I want to minimize friction by not needing to repeat password and get one free try without logging in. Maybe go full Snapchat and just take the user straight to the camera, skip the extra steps? I'll take all that into consideration and Ill definitely fix the try without login part. Thanks!

    Hi @SnapchatSupport, I’ve been temporarily banned again for “unauthorized third-party apps”—something I haven’t used. Last time it was 7 days, now it’s 30. I’ve tried email support but got no real help. Can someone please explain why this keeps happening?

    @arcanenumis @MoneroMavrick Average users of iphones are imessage/facetime, snapchat (terrible ux), tiktok (terrible ux), whatsapp, and instagram users. they dont use signal, crypto, third party browsers etc. Its not about "ui" for them, its about following trends

    @real_n3o This is the equivalent to a girl constantly sending selfies on Snapchat but never down to chill

    Riri (@Rir_i6) reported

    @snapchatsupport @snapchatsupport I’ve tried reinstalling the app, clearing cache, restarting my phone, and using a stable Wi‑Fi connection, but my Snaps still disappear after briefly showing in Memories. These Snaps are very important. Could you check if there’s a bug or issue on your end?

  • DaRealist68223
    DaRealist (@DaRealist68223) reported

    So let me get this straight Ed posted 800 snaps, that’s 800 dollars x 365 days in a year he would make 292k in a year. We can round it down to 250k a year because he wouldn’t be with him everyday. That’s insane for Snapchat alone, and not having to pay many other expenses!!
