  21. Fiona

    Me and my friend were at a 100 day streak today and we both sent streaks to EACHOTHER and it disappears can I get it back???

  22. The

    Me and my friend snap chatted each other yesterday and we reached a 99 snap streak. Today was meant to be our 100th day but it just disappeared, this doesn’t make sense as I wake up early to do my streaks and do them every day. I’m even doing my other friends streaks while they’re on holiday, I’m not pleased about this I’ve seen many people who have the same problem so maybe snapchat should fix the streaks a bit?

  23. Jay

    will my streak disappear if i log out of my SC?

    1. Sarah

      No, just as long as you remember to somehow snap them back within 24 hours to keep the streak going

  24. Abi

    I had a snap streak with my partner of 179 and then I snapped her all night and it didn’t change! Is there a way I can get it back or phone them to tell them how disappointed I am?

  25. Ysabella cortez

    1. Mami

  28. A

  29. Emilie Desbiens

    I just lost my 306 day snapstreak with my bestfriend because my snapchat was lagging and I couldn’t answer! Is it possible to get it back somehow? Because thus both ruined our days and it’s all because of my shitty phone! Can I somehow report this to snapchat and they gove it back?

  34. Rose

    By reading your comments I just realised something. Depending on where you live the time zones will be different than snapchats (I’m not sure how it works because it’s done on a 24 time zone) Make sure you snap every day and night and it will garentue to work

  35. Gianni

    i lost my phone earlier today around 2:30-2:40 pm and i have to wait till tomorrow at 7:00 in the morning to get it back, do you think my streaks will disappear or will they be fine because i really don’t wanna lose my streaks for my 3rd time…
