  6. If your friend responds within the next 24 hours, a Snapstreak will be created and you will see a 🔥 emoji to the right of their name in the contacts list.
    • Repeat these steps once a day to increase the length of your Snapstreak. A number will eventually appear next to the 🔥 emoji which represents the number of days your Snapstreak has been going on. Both you and your friend have to send a Snap to each other once a day to continue the streak.
    • If you or your friend skips a day, a ⌛ icon will appear next to their name, indicating that your Snapstreak is at risk. If you or your friend don’t respond the following day, your Snapstreak will end and you will have to start over.

    How do I have a different Snapstreak?

    If you mean the different icons for the Snapstreaks, go into Settings, and under the Additional Services bar should be something that says Manage. Click on it and go to Friend Emojis. Then scroll down.

    The Snapstreak can increase by only one each day. The fastest way to do it each day is just to send the other person an image with no text on it.
  • Question
    If I send more than one Snap, will the Snapstreak number increase faster?

    No, you can increment your streak by only one daily. Doing more than one Snap will not change anything.
