How to Pin Someone on Snap
Snapchat is a popular social media platform where users can share their daily activities, photos, and videos with friends and followers. One of the features that Snapchat offers is the ability to “pin” a user on the app. Pinning allows you to keep a specific user’s chat, story, or snap at the top of your chat list, making it easier to access and view. In this article, we will guide you on how to pin someone on Snap.
Open Snapchat and Navigate to Your Friends List
The first step in pinning someone on Snapchat is to open the app and navigate to your friends list. To do this, simply open the app and swipe right from the camera screen. This will bring up your friends list, which will display all of your friends and any pending friend requests.
Understand the Limitations of Pinning
While pinning someone on Snapchat can be a useful feature, it’s important to understand its limitations. For example, if you pin someone, they will only appear at the top of your friends list on the device you pinned them on. If you use Snapchat on a different device, they will not be pinned.
Additionally, pinning someone does not mean that they will receive any special notifications or alerts when you send them a snap or message. It simply means that their profile will be more easily accessible for you and your friends.
