Are you curious about how Snapchat determines your Snapscore? The Snapchat score (Snapscore) is calculated using the number of Snaps sent and received and how often you post to your Story. While Snapchat keeps the other factors of your Snapscore a secret, it's likely that the score also takes into account how often you keep Snapstreaks, look at Spotlight content, and interact on the Discover page. It’s easy to check your score — it’s on your profile page! This wikiHow guide will teach you how Snapchat scores work, and give you expert tips for increasing your own Snapscore.
Things You Should Know
- Snapscore is calculated using the number of Snaps sent/received, Story posts, and other hidden factors.
- Check your score by going to your profile. It’s under your username.
- Increase your score by sending Snaps and posting Stories.
Steps
Seeing a Friend’s Snapchat Score
-
Navigate to the Chat page in Snapchat. Tap the Chat icon in the bottom menu bar to go to the Chat page.
- Note that you need to be friends with someone to see their Snapscore.
-
Locate the friend whose score you want to check. Scroll through your chats to find the person you’re looking for.
-
Tap and hold the chat with your friend. This will open an options menu for the chat.
-
Tap View Friendship. This is at the top of the options menu under your friend’s name.
-
Look at your friend’s score. It’s the number under their username next to a small Snapchat icon.
Increasing Your Snapchat Score
-
Send more Snaps. Sending Snap pictures and videos will increase your Snapchat score. Plus, receiving a Snap back will further increase the score!
- Sending the same Snap to multiple friends won’t count for additional points.
-
Post to your Story. Posting Snaps to your Story will increase your score. Getting into a regular habit of posting will gradually raise it.
-
Add more friends. Adding friends on Snapchat means more people to exchange Snaps will, generating an even higher score.
