Key Takeaways
- Pinning a conversation on Snapchat prioritizes it and keeps it at the top of your chat section, even if you haven't been active with that person recently.
- You can only pin up to three conversations at a time, so choose wisely if you have multiple important chats.
- You can personalize your pinned conversations by changing the default pushpin emoji to any other emoji of your choice.
If you're an avid Snapchat user, you know that it's common for your chat page to get overwhelmed with snaps from different users. This can be an issue, as your important conversations can get lost in the crowd.
If you don't want to miss any messages from your favorite people, you can pin their chat on Snapchat. Here's how to do it.
How to Pin a Snapchat Chat
Snapchat offers many features, one of which is the ability to pin someone on Snapchat. Pinning someone on Snapchat prioritizes their conversation over others. This means that their conversation will remain at the top of the Snapchat Chat section, even if you have not sent snaps or messages to each other for a while.
To pin someone on Snapchat, press and hold their chat and select Chat Settings. Then, tap Pin Conversation.
Snapchat only allows you to pin three conversations at a time, so keep this in mind if you're thinking of using the pin feature to keep track of your important conversations. Another point worth noting is that your BFF #1 will have priority over the other pinned chats.
How to Unpin a Chat on Snapchat
Unpinning a conversation on Snapchat is just as easy. To do that, press and hold the pinned conversation and select Chat Settings. Then, tap Unpin Conversation.
Best of all, Snapchat doesn't notify users when you pin or unpin their conversations.
How to Change the Pinned Conversation Emoji on Snapchat
By default, Snapchat represents pinned conversations with a pushpin emoji. However, if you want to be creative and represent a pinned conversation with an emoji, you can do that. Here's how to change the pinned conversation emoji on Snapchat:
- Move to the Snapchat chat section.
- Tap your profile icon in the top-left corner.
- Tap the gear icon in the top-right corner.
- Choose the Friend Emojis option under the Additional Services section.
- Tap Pinned Conversation.
- Choose an emoji.
Next, go back to the Chat section, and you will see that Snapchat is using your selected emoji for your pinned conversations.
Keep Track of Your Important Conversations on Snapchat
If you receive a lot of snaps from different users, it can be very time-consuming to search for your important conversations on Snapchat.
The best way to avoid this situation is to pin your important conversations. This way, you can quickly access them without scrolling through a long list of chats.
