Snapchat emojis are a unique feature which tracks the way that both you and your Snapchat friends interact on the platform. The emoji that appears next to a user on Snapchat’s “Friends” tab can be affected by the length of time that you’ve been friends, the frequency that you send each other snaps, and the other Snapchat users who you interact with frequently, to name a few. When Snapchat launched they used a “Best Friends” feature to display who you frequently interacted with (and who frequently interacted with you) – but this information was available publicly. It was essentially a simplified version of the emoji system that is currently in place, but you were able to tap on somebody’s profile and view the top 3 friends that they interacted with. This is actually one of the main reasons why the “Best Friends” system was removed by Snapchat. Several high-profile Snapchat users were becoming concerned about any breaches of privacy that might occur due to their Snapchat best friends being on display.

Baby Face Emoji 👶

Smile Emoji 😊

This Snapchat emoji indicates that this user is one of your best friends. This means that you interact with them a lot on the platform – you send them a lot of snaps, and they send you a lot too, but they aren’t your #1 best friend. If you’re active on Snapchat you can expect to see several smile emojis in your friends list.

Grimace Emoji 😬

If you see the grimace emoji it means that you share one of your best friends with this friend. That means that they interact a lot with somebody who you also interact with frequently.

Sunglasses Emoji 😎

The sunglasses emoji indicates that you share a “close friend” with this person. A close friend is a Snapchatter who you send snaps to frequently, but not enough to be one of your best friends.

Smirk Emoji 😏

If you see this emoji, it means that you’re that person’s best friend, but they aren’t your best friend. Essentially this Snapchat emoji means that this person interacts with you the most, but they aren’t somebody who you interact with the most.

Gold Heart Emoji 💛

Red Heart Emoji ❤️

Fire Emoji 🔥

If you see the fire emoji on your friends list, it means that you’re on a Snapstreak with that person. A Snapstreak occurs when you and your friend have snapped each other for at least three days continuously. You’ll also see a number next to the flame emoji which indicates the number of days that your Snapstreak has been running for.

100 Emoji 💯

This is one of our favorite Snapchat emojis – the coveted 100. If you see a 100 emoji on your Snapchat friends list, get ready to take a screenshot, because you’ve had a Snapstreak running with that person for 100 days in a row. Very impressive.

Hourglass Emoji ⌛

If you see this Snapchat emoji, it’s time to get snapping! The hourglass Snapchat emoji indicates that your Snapstreak is going to end very soon with this person. Don’t worry though, just send them a snap and you’ll continue your streak.

Sparkle Emoji ✨

Birthday Cake Emoji 🎂

Purple Zodiac Emojis

Any Snapchat users who have entered in their birthday will receive a small purple zodiac emoji that corresponds to their relevant zodiac symbol. This Snapchat emoji is a little different from the previous ones that we’ve mentioned – you can only view the purple zodiac emojis by tapping onto somebodies Snapchat profile. Let’s take a look at what these purple zodiac Snapchat emojis represent.

♈ Aries (March 21 – April 20)

♉ Taurus (April 21 – May 21)

♊ Gemini (May 22 – June 21)

♋ Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

♌ Leo (July 23 – August 22)

♍ Virgo (August 23 – September 23)

♎ Libra (September 24 – October 23)

♏ Scorpius (October 24 – November 22)

♐ Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)

♑ Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)

♒ Aquarius (January 21 – February 19)

♓ Pisces (February 20 – March 20)

1. Click on the settings icon on your profile screen (on the top right corner, that looks like this ⚙)

2. Click on “My Account” and then on “Birthday”

So the Snapchat emojis that we mentioned above are actually the default options. If you’d prefer to use a different emoji, you can change them up at any time – the choice is yours. 2) In the top-left corner of your screen you’ll see your profile icon. Just tap that and you’ll see your profile menu appear. 3) When you’re on the profile menu tap on the button in the top-right corner and open up your ‘Settings’ tab. 4) Once you’re on the ‘Settings’ tab, scroll down and you should see ‘Additional Services’. The first option under ‘Additional Services’ will be ‘Manage’ – tap it. 6) You’ll see a list of “Friend Emojis” that you can tap on to edit. The Snapchat emojis explained above describe your relationship with your Snapchat friends, but there are also specific Snapchat emojis that are reserved for verified accounts. That’s why you’ll see that some official Snapchat stories display a custom Snapchat emoji, that also shows that the account has been verified. These official Snapchat story emojis are reserved for public figures and celebrities.
