Snapchat Plus is a subscription service that unlocks exclusive features for Snapchat users. If you're curious about whether a friend or someone you follow has subscribed, there's no single, foolproof way to know for certain. Snapchat doesn't publicly display Plus subscriptions. However, there are a few visual clues and behaviors that might suggest they're a Plus subscriber.
Visual Clues Suggesting Snapchat Plus
While Snapchat doesn't explicitly label users with Plus status, some features are exclusive to subscribers. Keep an eye out for these:
1. Custom Bitmoji Backgrounds
One of the most noticeable features is the ability to customize your Bitmoji's background. If you see someone using a unique, personalized background that goes beyond the standard options, they might have Snapchat Plus. This is a strong indicator.
2. Unique Chat Backgrounds
Similar to Bitmojis, Snapchat Plus subscribers have access to a wider variety of chat backgrounds. While some unique backgrounds might be available through other means, an unusually diverse and creative collection points toward Plus.
3. Exclusive Bitmoji Styles
Snapchat Plus frequently offers limited-edition or exclusive Bitmoji outfits and accessories. Spotting someone using a particularly rare or stylish Bitmoji item could be a hint.
4. Early Access to Features
Snapchat Plus subscribers often get early access to new features and updates before they're rolled out to the general public. While you can't definitively know if they're using early access features unless you know what those features are, it could hint at a Plus subscription.
Behavioral Clues
While not definitive, certain behaviors might indirectly suggest Snapchat Plus:
1. Frequent Use of Exclusive Features
If someone frequently uses features you know are exclusive to Plus (like custom Bitmoji backgrounds or unique chat backgrounds), it’s more likely they have the subscription.
2. Mentioning Plus Features
They might casually mention using a specific Snapchat Plus feature in a Snap, chat, or caption. This is probably the most obvious indication.
Important Considerations
- Privacy: Remember to respect someone's privacy. Don't relentlessly analyze their Snapchat profile or excessively question them about their subscription status.
- Not Guaranteed: The presence of these visual or behavioral clues doesn't guarantee someone has Snapchat Plus. Some features might be available through other means, or they could be using a friend's account.
- Snapchat's Discretion: Ultimately, Snapchat controls what information is displayed publicly, and the lack of a clear indicator is deliberate.
Conclusion
While there's no direct way to tell if someone has Snapchat Plus, paying attention to the visual clues and user behaviors described above can offer some educated guesses. Remember to respect privacy and understand that any assumptions are speculative.
