FAQ

Is there a dark mode on iOS?

Why don't I have a Snapchat app appearance?

Unfortunately, the 'App Appearance' option for Android has not yet been released. It is only made available for now for iOS. Maybe in the future, with new updates, this feature will also come for Androids. However, you need not worry about changing your Snapchat mode to dark on Android. There are ways to activate dark mode on Snapchat.

What is the most recent Snapchat version?

Snapchat+ is the most recent version of Snapchat. Snapchat+, a subscription-based service, was introduced on June 29. The new feature is not an altogether new platform, but rather a collection of unique features, and it is currently available for pre-release for USD 3.99 per month.

What happened to my snap?

If you see a message highlighted in grey, it implies that you or the person with whom you're chatting has saved it. A neat line is visible on the left side of the message, and if it's red, you saved it; if it's blue, then the other person saved it. There is no way to persuade someone to unsave a message unless you ask, which might be embarrassing. Now that you're aware, we recommend reviewing your conversations with friends to determine who saved what. If you want to delete your messages in chat then set messages to delete automatically on Snapchat.

Is a grey arrow indicating being blocked?

If you send a Snap to a buddy and a grey arrow and "Pending" display by their chat contact, it's possible that they've blocked you. Search their username in Snapchat's search box to discover if you're still friends. If their name appears on searching, it means they've unfriended you. In this way, you can see if someone unfriended you on Snapchat. If nothing shows up, you've been blocked.

The dark mode was invented long back but it was not until 2017 that it become popular. Dark mode has a lot of advantages, for example, it stresses the eyes less. If you have the dark mode set on your device then you'll find it easier to use in a dark room. So, what are waiting for? Go and set your Snapchat to dark mode.
