What to do if Snap bugs in 2022 (3 steps)
If Snapchat bugs in 2022, here are the 3 steps to understand and solve the Snap bug :
1. Check if Snapchat is buggy with these 3 websites (with urls)
2. Check the quality of your internet connection (Wifi or 4G)
3. Uninstall and reinstall the Snapchat mobile application (iPhone or Android)
Let's see in this detailed guide, the different ways to see if Snapchat is down and how to fix Snap bugs (with links and screenshots) :
1. Check if Snapchat is buggy with these 3 websites (with urls)
Step one: check that the failure or bug is not caused by Snapchat itself.
Sometimes, even if it is rare, the servers of social networks (Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram...) are down.
I suggest you visit 3 sites internet that centralize and detect Snapchat failures through users:
A. Go to the Downdetector website under Snapchat (+link)
The first site that detects Snap failures and bugs is Downdetector.
Go directly to the Downdetector site under the "Snapchat" section at the following url
https://downdetector.fr/statut/snapchat/
On this page you will see whether or not current user reports indicate a problem on Snapchat in 2022.
You will also see all Snapchat outages reported in the last 24 hours in the form of a graph.
This is where you can also report if you have a problemIf you have a bug or failure on Snapchat, you can notify other Snap users (like yourself).
B. Also go to the Istheservicedown website under Snapchat (+link)
Second site to visit in case of a Snapchat bug: Istheservicedown.
Go directly to the following url to see if there is a problem on the Snap side:
https://istheservicedown.fr/statut/snapchat
Once you open the Snapchat page, you will also see if Snapchat is currently experiencing any problems.
And a graph of issues on Snapchat over the last 24 hours.
These two services are based on Snap users' reports and declarations of bugs or failures encountered.
C. Go to twitter.com and search for "snapchat down" or "snap down
Third site to check if Snapchat is down: Twitter.com
Open your internet browser: Safari, Chrome, Edge, Firefox...
Go to Twitter's website at the "Explore" url :
or open your Twitter mobile application on iPhone (iOS) or Android.
Then search for the keywords 'snapchat down' or 'snap down to see if other users are also complaining about Snapchat issues on Twitter.
Complete with a visit to the official Snapchat Twitter profile:
It is possible that Snapchat will report a possible failure or bug there.
With the help of these 3 different sites, you will have a good idea if the bug is related to Snapchat directly or if it is a problem on your iPhone (or Android).
If you notice that other Snap users are experiencing problems, there is only one solution: wait for Snapchat to fix its outage.
If no one else has a problem on Snap, then you should solve the Snapchat bug on your iPhone or Android.
Let's look at other solutions to solve a Snapchat bug in 2022:
2. Check the quality of your internet connection (Wifi or 4G)
One of the bugs you sometimes encounter on Snapchat is a lack of internet connection (or a bad connection) on your iPhone or Android.
Think about check that you are connected to the internet via your Wifi or 4G connection: your Wifi or mobile data (4G) must be activated.
Try each of the possible connections: first Wifi only, then 4G only.
Once connected to the internet, check the quality of your connection by going to test your flow on the Degrouptest website for example:
https://www.degrouptest.com/test-debit.php
Click on "Launch the speedtest, activate geolocation and look at the results of the flow test.
If the speed is several MB per second, then the result is good. You don't have to worry about the internet connection.
If the speed is low or close to 0, then your internet connection has a problem.
In this case, switch between Wifi and 4G connection (and vice versa). Then test the flow again.
Do not hesitate to restart or unplug/plug the power supply of your internet box.
In short, you need a good internet connection to access Snap!
If the internet connection is good and Snapchat is still buggy, then move on to the next step:
3. Uninstall and reinstall the Snapchat mobile application (iPhone or Android)
Another solution to test: uninstall and reinstall the Snapchat application on your phone.
The method works on iPhone (iOS) and Android Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, Realme...
- On iPhoneTo uninstall Snapchat: tap and hold the Snapchat application icon > Uninstall.
- On AndroidTo uninstall Snapchat: tap and hold the Snapchat icon > Uninstall.
Once the Snap app is uninstalled, your phone is wiped clean of all Snapchat data such as the cache.
This may be useful to solve the Snapchat bug.
Then install the Snap application again:
For install the Snapchat application in 2022 :
- On iPhone / iOS: go to the App Store > Search for Snapchat > Install
- On Android Go to your Google Play Store > Search for Snapchat > Install
Then log in to your Snap account with your phone number or email.
Validate with the code reception by SMS.
Normally the Snapchat 2022 bug is solved!
You need to have access to all Snap functions.
If this is not the case, then the Snapchat failure must be located at the global level and under the responsibility of Snapchat.
So wait until Snapchat fixes the bug! :/
