What Is Streak in Snapchat?

Snapchat Streak Explained

A Snapchat Streak means you and a friend have exchanged Snaps for at least 3 days in a row. To start a Streak, you need to snap that friend, and they need to snap you back, within 24 hours. After you’ve gone back and forth for 3 days, you’ll see a little flame emoji next to that friend’s name. That means you officially have a Snapstreak going. The flame emoji shows your total number of consecutive, 24-hour exchanges. So if the flame says “20”, you’ve snapped each other at least once a day for 20 straight days. Pretty impressive!

To keep it going, make sure to send that friend a snap every 24 hours. If more than 24 hours passes between snaps, your streak will end. The hourglass emoji warns you if you’re close to losing it.

Importance of Snapchat Streaks

Why do people care about Snapstreaks? Some enjoy the sense of connection – it’s a fun way to interact daily. Others see streaks as a friendly competition, trying to outdo friends. But no matter what, streaks give you incentive to keep snapping friends.
