What Is A Snap Score: All You Should Know

A Snap Score is a measure of how well you are linked to your friends on Snapchat. Sounds creepy? Maybe, but it’s actually a good thing! If you’re anything like me, the chances are that your friends on Snapchat have started to get a little worried about their own Snap Scores. The more you use your app, the higher your score goes; and vice versa. However, there are many things we just don’t know about Snap Scores yet. What do they mean? How can you improve yours? Read on for everything there is to know so far about this elusive number…

How To Check Your Snap Score

To see your score, you first need to click on the profile icon in the top left-hand corner of the app. Just below your name, you’ll see a number. Beside this number is your astrological profile. In my case, since I was born on the 24th of April, mine displays “Taurus”.

How is Snap Score Calculated

Snap Inc. has never publicly shared the exact details of the algorithm behind the Snap Score, so there is no way to know with 100% certainty. However, several ideas exist on how it’s calculated.

  • The frequency of your conversations – How often you send and receive messages is an important factor, as it suggests you are actively engaged on the app.
  • The duration of your conversations – If you are regularly engaged in long, in-depth conversations, it suggests that you and your friends are really connecting.
  • The number of times you send messages – If you are consistently sending messages, it shows that you are comfortable reaching out to your friends.
  • The number of times you receive messages – If you are regularly receiving messages from your friends, it shows that they are comfortable reaching out to you.

What is a Good Snap Score?

This is a tough question to answer because it’s impossible to know what the exact threshold for a score is. However, we can make some general guesses about what the average Snap Score is. The average age of a Snapchat user is 21 years old, so let’s assume that the average Snapscore is around 8. This would make sense given that users at this age are likely to be more active on the app and have been using it for longer. The average score for a mutual friend would probably be around 12-13. This would account for the fact that most users are likely to have more mutual friends than individual ones.

How to Improve Your Snap Score

– Stay Active –

The key to improving your Snap Score is staying active – so if you have been inactive for a while, you might want to consider restarting your activity. If you haven’t been very active in the past, your Snap Score will be low, so you will have to build it up again.

– Send More Snaps –

Another important factor in improving your Snap Score is how often you send Snaps to your friends. If you are very active but don’t send many Snaps, your score will be low.

– Send Messages –

If you are regularly sending messages but rarely receiving any, your score will be low. If your score is low, try sending more messages and see if your score increases.

How to Hide Snap Score

If you are worried about your Snap Score, then the only way to hide it from your friends is to go to the particular friend’s profile, then either block them or remove them from your friends’ list. Sounds drastic, but that’s the only way to do so at the moment.

If you want to hide it from any other person who isn’t on your list of friends, then all you have to do is restrict the people who can contact you. You can also do so from your profile, then select “Friends” from the “Who Can Contact Me” section.

Conclusion

That wraps up this guide on everything there is to know about Snap Scores. Your Snap Score is an important metric to keep an eye on, and the more you know about it, the easier it will be to improve your score. The important thing to remember is that your Snap Score is calculated based on the strength of your friendships with other users. This means that there is no way to “hack” the system and magically boost your score. The only way to improve your Snap Score is to build genuine, long-lasting friendships on the app.
