How to Add Friends Using Snapcodes
You can use Snapcodes to add friends in several ways:
- Scan the Snapcode in the Snapchat app to add the associated friend.
- Take a snap of your friend’s Snapcode as it’s displayed on their device.
- Take a snap of your friend’s Snapcode in a message or email they sent you that contains it.
When your friend is added, a small tab at the top of the page lets you know it was successful.
On an iPhone, hit the power and home buttons at the same time, or the volume up and down buttons (Android). When a screenshot is successfully taken, your device may make a shutter sound and the screen may flash. It is automatically saved to the default photo folder that you have, whether it be your camera roll, screenshot folder, or another location.
