How To Change Snapchat Streak Emoji

There’s a huge relationship between Snapchat and emojis. Don’t you think? An example is the default fire emoji that appears three days after consistently sending snaps to your friends on Snapchat. The cool word for it is Snapstreaks.

But if you want to change that emoji to something more personalized and probably less boring, there’s a way to go around it.

So let’s find out how to change the Snapchat streak emoji so you can have a personalized feel the next time you send your chat buddy a snap.

Streak Emojis And What They Mean

The three default emojis for Snapchat are the fire, hundred, and hourglass emojis. They add color and fun to your snap conversation. Let’s find out what they mean:

Fire Emoji

The fire emoji only appears when you have sent a friend on Snapchat for 24 hours and have maintained that streak for three days. You will find a number by the side showing you how many days you have held that streak.

Hundred Emoji

As we said, there will be a number beside the fire emoji that indicates how long you have maintained your streak, and it updates every day as long as you send snaps to your friend. Once it gets to 100, it will be updated with the hundred emoji instead of the ideal number, 100. But after that, the numbers continue to update the normal way. This is just a fun way to hit a milestone.

Hourglass Emoji

When you see the hourglass emoji, your streak is almost over. By the 20th hour into the 24-hour period, you would be given a heads up to send a snap to your friend to keep your streak going. An hourglass emoji would appear close to their name, reminding you to update your streak before the next 4 hours run-up.

Conclusion

By following either of these methods, you’ll be able to change the Snapchat streak emoji whenever possible. Making new friends is pretty easy these days; Snapstreak gives you a fun way to create and maintain them and now personalizing emojis for your friends makes it even better!

So with a good Snap Streak and the right emoji, you can enjoy an exciting friendship bliss on Snapchat.
