How Do You Pin Someone on Snapchat?

Pinning on Snapchat is fairly straightforward and can be done with just a few quick taps within the app. Here’s how to pin on Snapchat.

How to Unpin People on Snapchat

Due to the limit on three pinned friends, you’ll likely need to unpin someone on Snapchat sooner or later to make room for someone else. Fortunately, unpinning people on Snapchat is super easy. Repeat this process for any other people that you want to pin in Snapchat.

What Does “Pin Conversation” Mean on Snapchat?

You may come across Snapchat users on other social media apps such as Twitter and Facebook referring to “pin conversations,” “pin people,” or “pinned people,” and wonder what this means. Such terms refer to conversations or people in a user’s Snapchat app that they’ve pinned to the top of their screens by following the steps shown above. That person will now be unpinned and placed within the rest of your Snapchat messages and be sorted by date. Repeat the process to unpin any other people that you want to unpin. Pinning someone on Snapchat doesn’t change their account status at all. People that you pin don’t even get a notification about it. This feature makes locating a conversation easier within the Snapchat app.

How to Customize the Snapchat Pin Icon

Like most emoji in the Snapchat app, you can also fully customize the icon, emoticon, or emoji used to designate a pinned person or conversation.
