Ever wondered what that number next to your Snapchat username is? That's your Snapchat Score, and it's more than just a vanity metric! It's a (somewhat mysterious) reflection of your activity on the platform.
So, *how does the score in Snapchat work*? Snapchat calculates it based on a few key factors:
* **Snaps Sent & Received:** This is the big one. The more you snap, the higher your score climbs.
* **Stories Posted:** Sharing to your Story also boosts your score.
* **Streaks Maintained:** Keeping those streaks alive is rewarded!
* **Other Factors:** Snapchat keeps some scoring secrets, but it's believed things like adding new friends and re-engaging after inactivity play a role.
Want to *boost* your score? Engage with your friends! Send snaps, reply to theirs, and keep those streaks going. While it's not a competition, a higher score often signifies an active and engaged Snapchat user. Now go forth and snap!
