Frequently Asked Questions
What are Snapchat Planets?
Snapchat Planets are a unique feature within the Snapchat Plus subscription that assigns a planet to each of your top eight friends, creating a celestial representation of your Friend’s Solar System.
How are Snapchat Planets determined?
The order of Snapchat Planets is based on the closeness of your friendships. The friend you share the most snaps and chats with becomes Mercury (the first planet), and it extends to Neptune, representing your eighth closest friend.
What do the colors and symbols on each planet mean?
Each planet has distinctive colors and symbols representing the nature of your friendship. For example, Mercury is a red planet with four red hearts, symbolizing your closest friend.
How can I view my Friend’s Solar System on Snapchat?
To view your Friend’s Solar System, subscribe to Snapchat Plus. Open a friend’s profile, and a “Best Friends” or “Friends” badge with a gold outline will indicate your top-eight status. Tap on the badge to unveil your position in the solar system.
What’s the difference between the “Best Friends” and “Friends” badges?
