The 10 Most Annoying Things People Do on Snapchat

Snapchat is all about fun, filters, and staying connected with friends in a super casual way. But let’s be real—not everyone uses the app the way it was intended. Sometimes, people’s habits can turn a scroll-worthy experience into an eye-roll marathon.

Here are the 10 most annoying things people do on Snapchat that we all secretly (or not-so-secretly) wish they’d stop.

1. The Never-Ending Streak Obsession

Yes, streaks are cool—for about the first 50 days. But sending a blank screen with just “Streaks” every single day? Not cool. Nobody wants to feel like they’re part of some digital chore list.

2. Overusing the Dog Filter in 2024

The dog filter had its moment, and we loved it. But now? It’s like that old meme we can’t laugh at anymore. If you’re still rocking it, it might be time to explore the other 500+ filters Snapchat offers.

3. Posting a Snap Story Every 10 Seconds

Your lunch? Cool. The sky? Beautiful. But do we really need to see your ENTIRE day in 45-second intervals? No one has time to watch a story that rivals a Netflix series.

4. The “Watch My Story” DM Spam

If people want to watch your story, they’ll watch it. Spamming “Check out my story!” in everyone’s inbox is just desperate—and a little awkward.

5. Filming a Concert Through the Entire Show

We get it—you’re at an epic concert. But instead of enjoying it, you’re busy filming blurry 10-second clips that sound like static. Live in the moment! (And save your Snap friends from that noise.)

6. Constantly Snapping in the Gym Mirror

Working out is great, but we don’t need a play-by-play of your biceps’ progress every single day. One gym selfie is motivation. Ten gym selfies are overkill.

7. The Cryptic “Feeling Some Type of Way” Snaps

A blurry picture of your ceiling with a vague caption like “it’s whatever” is just fishing for attention. If you’re going through something, talk to your friends—not your Snap story.

8. Adding Everyone to a Group Chat for No Reason

Group chats on Snapchat can be fun, but randomly adding everyone you know to a group without context? Pure chaos. And then, of course, you’re the first to mute it.

9. The Flashing Ceiling Snap

If all you’re doing is snapping the ceiling fan while listening to some moody playlist, what are we supposed to do with that? Engage? Relate? Nobody knows.

10. Taking Screenshots Without Warning

Snapchat is built on privacy vibes, so when someone screenshots a snap or chat without permission, it feels like the ultimate betrayal. Just don’t.

Final Thoughts

Snapchat is a playground for creativity and connection, but these habits? They can kill the vibe faster than a bad internet connection. So let’s all agree to stop the cringe-worthy behaviors and keep Snapchat as fun as it was meant to be.
