This is intended to make snapchat more convenient for you \u2014 if you tend to Snapchat someone a lot, they make it easier for you to send them snaps.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/reasons-download-snapchat-right-second\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read More: Reasons to Download Snapchat Right Now<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>How to Select Buddies to Be on Your Best Friends List<br \/>\n<\/strong>In short, you can\u2019t. However, you can increase your frequency of interaction with the desired friend that you want on your best friend. Snapchat utilizes something called a \u201cMagical Snapchat Friendship Algorithm\u201d to devise your list.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do the Friend Emojis mean?<br \/>\n<\/strong>If you look at your friends list, you will notice an array of emojis next to some of their names. These can be a little bit confusing. While you can customize which emoji means what, here are the standard uses.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heart \u2013 \u201cBFF.\u201d This appears next to your top best friend when you are also their number 1 best friend, for two weeks in a row.<\/li>\n<li>2 Hearts \u2013 \u201cSuper BFF.\u201d Same as BFF, but two months instead of two weeks.<\/li>\n<li>Yellow Heart \u2013 When you and your #1 best friend are both at the top of each other\u2019s lists.<\/li>\n<li>Fire \u2013 \u201cSnapstreak!\u201d Appears with a number next to it. This number represents how many days in a row you and your friend have snapchatted. If you go 24 hours without snapping this person, you lose the snapstreak.<\/li>\n<li>Baby \u2013 \u201cNew friend.\u201d This appears next to someone who is new to your friends list.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What is a Snapchat Score?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Your snapchat score is indicative of how often you use your Snapchat. According to Snapchat, a \u201cspecial equation\u201d is used to help devise this number. It is decided by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li># of snaps sent<\/li>\n<li># of snaps received<\/li>\n<li># of stories posted<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The fourth one is unknown \u2014 Snapchat uses another algorithm to help figure out this mysterious number.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to learn more about social media or smartphone apps, visit the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/\">PSafe blog<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The \u201cbest friends\u201d feature on Snapchat can make things a bit awkward and make others feel excluded.
