Question

Why isn't Snapchat letting me add my friend back to my friends list?

Community Answer

If you've deleted someone from your friends list, you'll need to wait at least 24 hours before you can add them again. Try again tomorrow.

Question

After I unblock someone, how do I send them Snaps again?

Community Answer

You may need to add the unblocked person as a friend again, and that person may need to add you back as well, depending on their privacy settings. Once you're both friends again, you can send and receive Snaps without seeing the "Pending" message.

Question

If I sent a message to someone and then blocked them before they saw it, will they be able to see it if I unblock them?

Community Answer

If it has been 24 hours, I don't think so. It's the same when someone sends you a sentence in the "chat" and you don't open it. It expires after a day so they can't see it.

Question

How can I get my best friend to show up on my recents if I blocked and unblocked him?

Community Answer

Send them a snap. Blocking and then unblocking resets your conversation history. By sending them a snap, you will have recent activity and they may show up in your "Recent" list.

Question

I'm trying to unblock somebody but Snapchat is saying "Unable to unblock, please try again." What can I do?

Community Answer

It took me a couple tries. I let my phone just sit on the settings page for a minute, and then the person was unblocked and I could add them again.
