About Snapchat

Snapchat built its whole idea on messages that disappear after being seen, which is still what separates it from the other platforms. It is run by Snap Inc from the United States.

Its Indian user base skews young, and the features that hold them are Streaks, Stories, Spotlight and the AR lenses the company invested in early. Snap Map adds a location layer that friends share with each other. Evening and late night hours carry the most activity.

If Snapchat isn't working

Snaps not sending or loading? Restart the app, check Wi-Fi or mobile data, update the app, and clear the cache from Settings. If many report it above, it is Snapchat's side.
Can't log in or 'could not connect'? During an outage this hits many people at once, so wait. If reports are low, check your internet and avoid repeated attempts that can lock the account.
App freezing after an update? Update to the latest version or reinstall the app, since a buggy update can cause it.
Is it Snapchat or your network? Check the reports above. If they are low, it is likely your own connection or device rather than Snapchat.
Check the live status above A spike across India or globally means it is Snapchat, not you. Wait rather than reinstalling repeatedly.

The screenshot shows Snapchat's current status, the last checked time and how many users across India are reporting problems right now.

We run an on demand check from our server and combine it with real user reports across India. Reports are the main signal, since Snapchat can respond to our check while snaps and chats still fail for users.
