How To Tell If Someone Has Multiple Snapchat Accounts

✎ Key Points:

1. You can just search the person’s name and look for the profiles and if the details match with each other.

2. You can also check the stories that are uploaded onto those accounts and you can also save the numbers on your phone contacts. If they have a new account you will get notifications for it.

There are a few things you should know about creating Snapchat accounts with the same phone number.

How To Tell If Someone Has Multiple Snapchat Accounts:

Try the following methods to tell if someone has multiple Snapchat accounts:

1. Save the Contact Number

The most basic yet precise method is to ‘Save the contact’ of the friend. When you save your friend’s contact and sync it with Snapchat, the person will automatically appear on the add friend list. Thus, if you see more than one account, you can know that you have multiple accounts.

Save the contact number

Now, there can be multiple reasons to create multiple accounts, such as they might have lost the password of the old account or have been facing some trouble in the previous one and created a new one. You can also check whether he/she is active on all the accounts or not by adding them as a friend and on whichever ID they accept, is the current active account of the person.

2. Look at Snap Score

On Snapchat, the user gets a point whenever he receives a snap or sends a snap. These points collectively are called the snap score of any person. The more active the person on Snapchat with that particular account the higher the score and the lower the snap score means newer the account.

Look at Snap Score

In addition, less + constant the snap score means not active with that Snapchat account. Now, to find out the multiple accounts using this method, first of all, find and collect all the accounts, and next check the snap score, one by one.

The new profile would have the lowest score on the profile.

3. Send Snaps to Those People

Next is again the most sorted technique to find out the activity on multiple Snapchat accounts. In this, what you have to do is ‘send the snap’ to all the accounts and look if you find out suspicious from your friends.

For that, firstly, find all those accounts and add them to your friends’ lists. Also, wait till they add you back.

Send Snaps to those People

Send a snap of such a thing they can’t control to react. Additionally, whichever account they add you back is the active account, and if with all, then yes, your friend is using multiple accounts.

Thus, the person, if viewed from all the profiles, then he’s using all those profiles and has multiple accounts. So, add him as a friend first; otherwise, snap would not deliver.

4. Their Recent Posts

Another reliable method is checking their recent stories on all those profiles. If both the profiles have some recent stuff posted the same, you can be sure those are active, and your friend has double or multiple profiles.

However, there is no option to save the posts/stories on Snapchat, but if the person posts some kind of story on different accounts, that also works out.

5. Google the Person’s Name

As people believe and rely on Google for everything, one can also come up with the problem. So, here, you have to do a Google search with the term > ‘Snapchat accounts of a person’s name and look for what comes up on the screen. If the profile details match your friend’s, you got it.

Why would someone have 2 Snapchat accounts:

He may have the following reasons:

1. Separate Promotional and Personal Accounts

If you find that a person has two Snapchat accounts and both are equally active and used by the user then both accounts may be used for different purposes. There is a good chance that one of the accounts is private, which is a personal account.

Separate Promotional and Personal Accounts

The user may use the second account for business or promotional purposes. You’ll most probably find that the business account is public which you can check if you see that you’re able to view its stories without following the account.

2. Lost Access to Previous Account

If you find that a person has two different Snapchat accounts but he doesn’t post stories from one account, the inactive account may be the previous account whose access he might have lost. After losing access to his previous account, he created a second Snapchat account which is presently used by the person for posting stories, maintaining Snap streak, etc. 

You can unfollow the inactive account and follow the active account only.

Conclusion:

Finding if someone has multiple Snapchat accounts can be done through a few methods. By saving their contact number, checking snap scores, sending snaps to each account, examining recent posts, or even with a Google search, users can tell if someone has multiple profiles on Snapchat.
