See Your Friends List On Snapchat
The user interface of the app is almost similar to both Android and iOS, so you follow the explained methods in any of the platforms.
Method 1
The first method is quite simple and straightforward. It’s just that with this method, the friends you’ll see on the list will be the friends who have also added you back as a friend:
- Launch the Snapchat app on your smartphone.
- Now tap on your Bitmoji or story thumbnail (in case you have an active story) on the top left corner of the screen to open your Snapchat profile.
- After going to your profile, scroll down a little bit to find “My Friends” option and then tap on it.
That’s it, now you’ll see your list of friends organized in Best Friends, Recents, and Alphabetical category.
Note: In the next three methods, you’ll see all of your friends on the list, doesn’t matter if they have added you back as a friend or not and vice versa.
Method 2
This method is also simple and as easy as the first method. However, with this method, the list of friends that you’ll see will not be well organized:
- Launch Snapchat on your smartphone.
- On the camera screen, you’ll see a chat icon to get to your friends’ list on the bottom left corner of the screen. Tap on it. You can also swipe right from the camera screen to get to your friends’ list.

Method 3
In this method, you basically create a new chat to view your friends’ list. Unlike with the last method, this method shows you the list in a more organized manner. Like you’ll see the friends with whom you communicate frequently falling under the Best Friends category. Then you’ll see all the recently added friends in the Recents category, and finally, all your friends will be arranged alphabetically in the All category.
- In the Snapchat app, go to the Chats screen by tapping on the chat icon at the bottom left.
- Next, tap on the new chat icon at the top right.
- Here, you will be able to see all your friends and groups in a well-organized manner.
Method 4
In this method, you have to create a new snap to view your Snapchat friends’ list. And the friends’ list in this method will also be arranged similarly like with the last method. The only difference is that with this method, you’ll also see Quick Add category with a list of people whom you can be friends with.
- In Snapchat, take a random snap.
- Now, tap on the send icon at the bottom right.
