How To Change Text Size in Snapchat

Dave Johnson August 18, 2023

You may have noticed that your text size has changed in Snapchat’s messages. The reason being, the app adjusted to your phone’s settings. Fortunately, if you’re not happy with this change, you can make a few adjustments.

Here’s how you can switch it to your liking yourself.

How to Change Snapchat Font Size on Your Android Device

If the next on SnapChat is too small or too big for you, fear not. Here’s a solution:

Go to your phone’s settings.
Go to “Display.”
Choose “Text Size.”
Use the slider to adjust the font.

Note that Android will apply these changes everywhere on your phone. Now you can continue to enjoy chatting on Snapchat again.

How to Change Your Chat Wallpaper in Snapchat

Now that you’ve adjusted the font in your chat, why not change the wallpaper as well?

Here’s how to do so:

Open Snapchat.
Go to messages.
Open a desired chat.
Click on the name of the chat or group.
Go to “Wallpaper.”
Go to “For Us.”
Here you can choose one of the default backgrounds.
In case you don’t like the premade backgrounds, go to “Camera Roll.”

This is how you can adjust the chat to your style. However, you’ll need a Snapchat+ subscription to be able to enjoy this feature.

What Does Snapchat+ Offer?

We’re all a bit skeptical when it comes to paid subscriptions. The app should offer its users something extraordinary for them to agree to pay an additional subscription.

So what exactly does Snapchat+ offer? The monthly subscription plan offers these features, among others:

Chat Wallpapers

You can customize the wallpaper for any of your chats.

Story Rewatch Indicator

You’ll get notified about who liked your content. This might give you insight into your social life that you didn’t know before.

Best Friends Forever

Pin your favorite person at the top of your chat. That way, they’ll always be just one click away.

Story Timer

With regular stories, it’s usually a 24-hour period before they disappear. But why not set the time yourself?

Custom Notification Sound

Want know who you got a notification from, without even having to look? It’s possible with SnapChat+!

Replay Again

Like that snap extra? Why not replay it again once you viewed it?

Story Boost

Get more views from your friends list.

These are just some of the special features of this advanced version of the app. However, it’s up to you to decide if it’s worth the money.

How to Customize Your Friend’s Emojis on Snapchat on Your Android Device

You may wish to switch up things a little. There’s no better way than with emojis. They’re the ones keeping messages fun.

Here’s how to customize emojis on Snapchat:

Open Snapchat.
Go to your profile.
Open “Settings.”
Choose “Customize Emojis.”
Choose the emoji you like.

Now, instead of hearts, your friends can be marked with their favorite food or animal.

How to Customize Your Friend’s Emojis on Your iOS Device

Don’t worry, iOS users. You too can customize your friend list and emojis.

This is how to change your friend’s emoji on Snapchat:

Open Snapchat.
Go to your profile.
Go to “Settings.”
Choose “Friend Emoji”. Under “Additional Services.”
Choose the emoji you like.

You can now choose an emoji for any of your friends.

How Do Best Friends on Snapchat Work?

On Snapchat, “Best Friends” are the people you chat the most with. Each of them will have an emoji and each emoji has a meaning behind it. There’re different levels of friendship, depending on your frequency of snapping.

You can have up to eight Best Friends at one time. No one can see who they are except you. But everyone can see if they’re on your friend list.

If you wish to get a specific “level of friendship” with someone, snap them more often. If you wish to speed it up, try reducing communication with other friends on Snapchat. Each new type of friendship will be marked with a different emoji (for example, a yellow heart indicates that you are best friends with someone).

We hope this made things a little clearer. As you can see, Snapchat can be a fun way of sharing with your friends and having a clear clue of how often you share with each other.

Difference Between a Friend and a Follower on Snapchat

When someone adds you as a friend, you’ll be notified. Of course, they will need your approval. Once you accept it, you’ll see each other’s posts.

However, if your profile’s public, you can have followers. These don’t need approval to see anything (since your profile is public). You won’t be notified when they start following. And you won’t see their posts.

It’s always a good idea to keep your profile private. This gives you the control of knowing who sees your content. Never share something online you think you might regret later.

We All Want a Personalized Experience

Users recently noticed that the message font had got smaller or bigger on SnapChat. The reason being, the app adjusted to your phone’s settings. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you’re forced to use this font. With a few simple steps, it can be changed on any device.
