Find Snapchat Friends: A Complete Guide for Snapchatters

Snapchat- in all its glory- is super addicting (even with the new update). From all the fun filters to amazing stories, there’s plenty to love but one thing remains a mystery: how are you supposed to find snapchat friends and most importantly, grow your network?

Unlike other social media platforms like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook it’s a complex task.

 

There are individuals who have millions of friends- so we know it isn’t impossible, but how can you pull it off?

There aren’t any retweets, hashtags or any feature that helps you tag friends on this app, so becoming “big” on the app can seem like a lot of hard work.

Read on, to find out how you can boost your Snapchat game from basic to fan-f**king-tastic.

 

If you are still reading this article then I’m assuming you really want to find Snapchat friends and before you pull up your socks, just decide which either of the two fits the description of your goal- genuinely wanting to expand your social circle or expand your influence on this social media platform.

If you are trying to achieve the former goal, then the first section of this article will come in handy.

 

While on the other hand if you are trying to achieve the latter, then you will find the second section of this article helpful for you.

 

Explore and Understand the In-App features to Find Snapchat Friends

 

Generally, most of us haven’t even explored the app (and hear me out completely before you go all defensive on me) or maybe we were too lazy to understand what different features meant and how they could have helped us find Snapchat friends.

The in-app friend finder tools will help you link with people you already have some connections to, and will allow you to forge deeper, more meaningful friendships with them.

While the idea of talking to new people might scar

 

In-App Features to Find Snapchat Friends

 

 1. Address Book

 

This one is for those of you who are new to Snapchat (a.k.a Snapchat virgins) or have turned off the address book contact sync.

Snapchat allows its users to connect with their contacts.

To enable this, click on your profile icon and go to ‘AddFriends’.

Scroll right to the ‘Contacts’ section and grant permission to the app to add all the contacts from your phone device’s contact book that have a Snapchat account.

 

2. Username

 

Sounds pretty obvious, doesn’t it? You can go ahead and add random Snapchat friends simply by trying new usernames.

To do that just tap the magnifying glass and type in the username and click on ‘+Add’ to add them as your friend.

 

3. Quick Add

 

The ‘QuickAdd’ feature that helps you add all those individuals whom you might know or might have a mutual contact with or simply you might like to add them as your friends based on the type of people you are currently in touch with.

Additionally, you can also enable the “See me in quick add” feature. It will then display your account details to others when they press the ‘quick add’ button.

 

4. Snapcodes

 

Snapcodes or Snapchatcodes are a fun way to find Snapchat friends.

It is nothing but a unique QR code that a user can use to add you instead of your username. (Plus point: if your username is really embarrassing then I recommend you stick to adding people by Snapcodes #IYKWIM).

All you have to do is scan the other user’s Snapcode by the app’s camera or choose a photo with a Snapcode to add them.

 

5. Recommended

 

This feature suggests friends on the basis of the friends you currently have and also, how often you interact with them.

For instance, there is someone on Snapchat that a lot of your friends have in common, they’re quite likely to pop up in your Recommendations so that you can easily connect with them.

Your network is going to increase at a steady pace if you keep adding people from Recommendations.

As you keep adding friends, it will add to your web and have more suggestions which will lead to more friends on Snapchat.

 

6. Share Username

 

This in-app feature allows users to share their username via URL. This means that you can share your username on any social media platform (or by sending texts) and the recipient will add you when he/she opens the link.

 

7. Share Snapcode

 

This in-app feature is similar to the “Share Username” feature and helps you find Snapchat friends and connect them without all the hassle.
