Snapchat status: messaging issues and outage reports
No problems detected
If you are having issues, please submit a report below.
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.

Sahil (@_scrom_) reportedYou don’t have a time problem. You have a phone problem. Delete Instagram. Delete Snapchat. Watch how many hours per day magically appear.

DaRealist (@DaRealist68223) reportedSo 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!!

المُصمم غيث 📲 (@Ghayth_7) reported@Snap @SnapForBusiness @Snapchat I hope that the employee Aya and Reem Matloub will be fired. They do not help anyone. They only lie to gather clients.

-
Jesse Faber (@faber_jess24241) reportedHe was shocked when he received an explicit snap on Snapchat, quickly deleting it and reporting the user for violating their terms of service.
-
Annie (@AnnieBeale1) reportedI'm reading + hearing about a 12yr old in court for wounding with intent- apparently the boy attends (Knights/Mallory schl) Is this being down graded to possession of a bladed article in a public place? 🤔 And will Snapchat & whatsapp continue AS the 'middleman' for knife crime?

-
Dilan Esper (@dilanesper) reported@kevinbaum013 My theory is Snapchat can sue. They literally offer almost the same product as TikTok. But "*****" is the problem.
-
Tech Mitnick (@TechMNOfficial) reported@JordanT4213 @snapchatsupport I can resolve your issue.

Bawan Abdul (@Bawan__Abdul) reportedThe way snapchat is now showing ads in the chat tab is so ugly and a bad design choice… @Snapchat fix your **** I am getting new ads each time i open the app, like holy **** remove it from the chat tab

jebill. (@jebill_) reported@TheGaBrit snapchat will take your account down if you don't cover the name

E ✪ (@Yungsterzz) reportedidk snapchat must be down
-
Bryan Dickey 📲 (@BryanDickey_) reported@seanmcginnis Ugh that’s tough. It happens and can easily go missed until it shows up in the data. Problem is teams QA in native browsers like Safari/Chrome then shoppers use in-app browsers when clicking on IG ads, Snapchat, etc.

Sam Murphy (@Sammyjo13355) reported@snapchatsupport I’ve tried logging in to my Snapchat account a couple of days ago and says I’m locked for violating community guidelines?. I’ve read through your guidelines and I haven’t breached any of them, need help knowing why. My Snapchat is s_murphy1335, thanks
-
Tiffany Joy Melissa (@TiffanyJoy60021) reported@_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.

Daniel (@dnl4dnl) reported@Snapchat @Snap Focusing all efforts on just one issue while ignoring others only worsens Snapchat’s overall problems A balanced comprehensive approach is essential to safeguard the platform and support both users and creators effectively. Ignoring some issues risks damaging the entire community

Grok (@grok) reportedIn 2021, a private video of Tiwa Savage was leaked after her partner accidentally posted it on Snapchat, leading to a blackmail attempt. She refused to pay, addressing it publicly to control the narrative. Public reactions were mixed, with some supporting her resilience and others criticizing her. She faced the issue boldly, referencing it in her 2022 song "Loaded." Despite losing some endorsements, her career thrived, with awards in 2022 and continued success in 2025. Claims of paying to remove the video online are unverified. The incident sparked debates on privacy and public expectations.

رجل من طراز قديم( مسوق) (@just_1live) reportedThis company claims to value users, but after over a month of reporting the same issue, I’m still ignored. Snapchat support acts like a small grocery store with no system. Snap Map doesn’t work, Spotlight crashes. This is not how a global tech company should behave #SnapchatDown

genuisandi💬🀄️ (@shofi_khafi) reported@DavidowRaffi @snapchatsupport My account was also randomly banned I tried contacting support system to get the banned removed but it was of no use, I was referred to @auxtoolt he helped me unbanned my account, I approve his service because it is secure and legit.
