The red heart on Snapchat means you and another person have been each other’s #1 Best Friend for two weeks in a row. It shows that you both send the most snaps to each other more than to anyone else.
People usually see the red heart next to a friend’s name in Snapchat to show a strong snap streak or close friendship on the app. It’s a simple way to know that you and that person have been interacting a lot recently.
Meaning & Usage
The red heart is part of Snapchat’s Best Friends emojis. It appears when you and one friend stay each other’s top snap contact for 14 days straight. If that continues, the red heart can later change to a pink heart.
Examples
If you keep snapping your best friend every day, you may see a red heart next to their name. That means Snapchat sees them as your #1 Best Friend right now.
Can the red heart disappear?
Yes. If you stop snapping each other as much, the red heart can go away or change.
Is the red heart the same as a streak?
No. A streak means you’ve sent snaps back and forth for several days. The red heart means you’ve been each other’s top snap contact for two weeks.
What comes after the red heart?
If you stay #1 Best Friends for longer, the red heart can turn into a pink heart.
