My girlfriend and I are aiming for those pink hearts on Snapchat, but we just lost our 5-day streak today. We send each other snaps about 2-3 times a day and don’t personally snap anyone else.
Today, I noticed that my yellow heart for her changed to a normal best friend icon. When I asked her about it, she said I’m still a yellow heart on her app.
How exactly does this #1 best friend thing work? What makes someone my #1 best friend rather than just another best friend? She’s still my only best friend, just not showing as the yellow heart.
To make someone your #1 Best Friend on Snapchat, just snap each other frequently and limit snaps to others. Maintain a regular snap streak and engage with chats and video calls too. If you lost the yellow heart, it means one of you snapped someone else more often. Keep your interactions consistent to get it back.
My pink hearts, which signify that you have been best friends for two months, vanished for no apparent reason today. Even though there are no hearts, we are still each other’s best friends. I’m not sure if Snapchat removed them for everyone or what. The person you snap the most with is what defines the best buddy. You have to be each other’s #1 best friend to have a yellow, red, or pink heart. Go to your friends list to discover your best pals ranked orderly. There will be no room for second-best friends.
You have to be number one on each other’s lists. So if you aren’t first on her list, you won’t receive the yellow heart. You mentioned she had a yellow heart on her phone, so it could just be a glitch.
