A quick guide to customizing the Snapstreak emoji in Snapchat

Are you looking to change the streak emoji in Snapchat? The fire emoji might get redundant, so you can easily change it! Good news is that the emoji automatically changes when you get to 100 snaps, but you can also change it in settings! This wikiHow article teaches you how to change the streak emoji on Snapchat using the mobile app on your Android or iPhone.

Things You Should Know

  • The fire emoji can get boring, but you can change the streak emoji in "Settings > Customize Emojis > Snapstreak!"
  • You can use any emoji, like a teddy bear, to display next to your Snapstreaks.
  • If the emoji next to your streaks isn't changing, try logging out and then back in.

Steps

  1. 1
    Open Snapchat. Tap the app icon that looks like a white ghost on a yellow background.
    • This method changes your streak emoji, which appears next to Snaps between you and a friend.
  2. 2
    Tap your profile picture. It's in the top left corner of your screen.

  4. 4
    Tap Customize Emojis. You'll see this under the "Who can" header.
  5. 5
    Tap Snapstreak!. It's near the bottom of the menu.
  6. 6
    Select any emoji. Since the fire emoji is the default emoji, it is also first on the list. You can select any of the emoji on the list.
    • When you tap to select one, it will appear next to all your Snapstreaks.[1]
    • Changing the emoji will not break the streaks that you have active. It will only change the emoji next to them.
    • You can't change the 100 emoji or the hourglass emoji. The 100 emoji only appears on the 100th day of a streak and will disappear again after that. The hourglass emoji warns you that your streak is in danger of ending.[2]
