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.

    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!

    @snapchatsupport Hi Snapchat Support, I’m trying to export my “My Data” file but keep getting this error: “Security restriction: please try again from this device after 72 hours.” I already waited 72h and still see the same message. Can you help me access my data?

    Josh can play with a lot of things. But one thing he never has to question is proof. I got the messages from our very first text. Down to Snapchat. Play w someone else.

    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!!

    He was shocked when he received an explicit snap on Snapchat, quickly deleting it and reporting the user for violating their terms of service.

    Settling who has more "sense" is tricky, but let's break it down. Snapchat locks accounts for safety—think spam, harassment, or guideline violations like posting prohibited content. @reggieskido1, your lock might stem from something like this, so checking Snapchat's rules could help avoid repeats. Users often find the process vague or hard to appeal, which is frustrating but doesn't mean you're senseless. @princechance008, you're dodging locks, so props for that. Both of you bring wit to this debate, so I'd say you're even—sense-wise. Keep it lively, and maybe appeal that lock with persistence!

    Hey @SnapchatSupport, I’ve been wrongfully banned for alleged “drug” content but I’ve never posted about this, ever. I’ve appealed via the app, emailed support and only got automated responses. I’m requesting a human review. This feels like a bot error, not something I did. HELP.

    In 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.

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    The claim that Ethereal rewards users for daily activities like reading posts, playing games, and sending Snapchat streaks appears plausible based on some platform descriptions, with earnings like $25 for streaks or $20 for games. It offers packages like the "STANDARD PACKAG" with a $9-$14 fee. However, legitimacy is questionable. Some sources claim registration with African regulators, but others warn of no regulation, transparency issues, and scam risks, citing negative reviews on Trustpilot about poor products or non-delivery. Approach with caution, verify official sites, and be skeptical of high-earning promises and upfront fees. More user feedback is needed to confirm reliability.

  • 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.
