Can you see who unfollowed you on Snapchat? No. Snapchat has no list of who removed you and no unfriend alert.
If you remove someone on Snapchat, will they know? Not from a notification. Snapchat does not send an unfriend alert. They may still notice, because they can no longer see your private Stories (Snapchat Support: How to Remove a Friend).
Snapchat does not show you who unfollowed your account. The platform hides this information deliberately. You can see your current friends list. You cannot see who used to follow you and stopped.
Third-party Snapchat unfollow tracker apps exist. Most require your Snapchat username and password. Giving your password to a third-party app violates Snapchat's Terms of Service and risks account suspension or permanent ban.
Snapchat's official API does not provide follower history or unfollow data to third-party developers. Apps that claim to track Snapchat unfollowers use unofficial methods that can trigger Snapchat's security systems.
Unfollow does not support Snapchat tracking. We track unfollowers on platforms that allow secure API access without password sharing: Bluesky, X (formerly Twitter), Twitch, YouTube, Trovo, and VKontakte.
How to check if one person removed you on Snapchat
You cannot get a list. You can check one person at a time:
- Open Chat and find the person.
- Send them a Snap or a Chat.
- Look at the icon under their name. A gray Pending icon can mean they have not added you, or they removed you. Snapchat says this icon depends on privacy settings (Snapchat Support: Chat icons).
Pending is a hint, not proof. Snapchat does not tell you why. If you cannot find their profile at all, they may have blocked you or deleted their account.
How to remove a friend on Snapchat
Snapchat's steps (Snapchat Support):
- Swipe right to open the Chat screen.
- Tap and hold the friend's name.
- Tap Manage Friendship.
- Tap Remove Friend.
After that, they can't see your private Stories. They can still see anything you post in public. Depending on your privacy settings, they may still be able to Chat or Snap you.
Why Snapchat hides who unfollowed you
Snapchat does not provide a native unfollower list or unfollow notifications. The platform made this choice to reduce social pressure and negative interactions between users.
Snapchat's decision means:
- You can see your total friends count in your profile.
- You can see your current friends list in the app.
- You cannot see a history of who used to follow you.
- You cannot see when someone removed you as a friend.
The Snapchat app does not have an unfollower feature. Snapchat's Insights dashboard shows Story view counts and engagement metrics. Those metrics show who viewed your content. They do not name accounts that unfollowed.
Snapchat's official API provides limited access for approved developers with specific permissions. That API does not provide historical friend data or unfollow events. Even with full API access, you cannot reconstruct who unfollowed you yesterday or last week.
Risks of Snapchat unfollow tracker apps
Third-party Snapchat tracker apps use methods that violate Snapchat's Terms of Service. Most apps fall into three categories:
Password-based apps ask for your Snapchat username and password. They log in as you to read your friends list repeatedly and compare changes. Snap's Terms of Service ban using unauthorized third-party apps to access Snapchat and asking other users for their login details. Snapchat's automated security systems flag unusual login patterns. Your account can be temporarily locked, permanently suspended, or flagged for review.
Scraping apps collect publicly visible friend lists without logging in. Snapchat actively blocks scraping. Your IP address can be rate-limited or banned. Apps that scrape on your behalf can get flagged. Snapchat can suspend accounts that use scrapers even if you did not directly share your password.
OAuth apps claim to use Snapchat's official API. Snapchat's API does not provide unfollower data. Apps that offer unfollower tracking through OAuth are either misleading about their data source or combining OAuth with prohibited methods like scraping.
All three types share common risks:
- Account suspension or permanent ban for Terms of Service violations.
- Security risk if a third party stores your password or OAuth tokens.
- Privacy risk if the app stores your friends list on external servers.
- Scam risk: many apps charge fees and deliver incomplete or fake data.
- Malware risk: unofficial apps can install tracking code or malware.
Snapchat offers no approved way to see who unfollowed you. Any app that claims to offer this feature is using an unsupported method.
What Unfollow actually tracks
Unfollow tracks unfollowers on platforms with secure official APIs. We do not support Snapchat because Snapchat does not provide an API for follower history data.
Unfollow supports these platforms:
- Bluesky: Enter your handle and Unfollow tracks who unfollowed your Bluesky account through the public AT Protocol API.
- X (formerly Twitter): Track who unfollowed your X/Twitter account using X's official OAuth API.
- Twitch: Track who unfollowed your Twitch channel using Twitch's official API with moderator scopes.
- YouTube: Track who unsubscribed from your YouTube channel using YouTube Data API with OAuth permissions.
- Trovo: Track who unfollowed your Trovo channel using Trovo's official follower API.
- VKontakte: Track who unfollowed your VK account using VKontakte's official API.
Unfollow never asks for your password. For X, Twitch, YouTube, Trovo, and VKontakte, you sign in on that platform's own page (OAuth) and approve access. You can revoke it in that platform's settings. For Bluesky, you only enter your handle. Bluesky follower lists are public, so no password or app password is needed. You can remove any connection in your Unfollow settings.
Tracking starts after you connect. Unfollow stores your current follower list as the starting state. Later checks compare new follower lists with the stored state and record accounts that are no longer following you.
A tracker cannot look backward and find old unfollows that happened before you connected. It can only record changes after the first successful check creates that starting baseline.
For more on how tracking works, see the Unfollow FAQ.
Safer approach: Focus on engagement
Instead of tracking who removed you, look at who still watches your Stories. Open your Story to see who viewed it.
A friend who still watches and replies matters more than your friend count.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you see who unfollowed you on Snapchat?
No. Snapchat does not show you who unfollowed your account or removed you as a friend. The platform deliberately hides this information. You can see your current friends list in your profile. You cannot see who used to follow you and stopped. Snapchat does not provide a native unfollower list, unfollow notifications, or historical friend data through its app or official API.
How can you tell if someone unfollowed you on Snapchat?
You can't see a list. Snapchat only lets you check one person at a time. Send them a Snap or a Chat. If it stays on a gray Pending icon, they may not have you as a friend anymore. Pending depends on privacy settings, so treat it as a hint, not proof.
If you remove or unfollow someone on Snapchat, will they know?
Snapchat does not send them an alert. They may notice later. They can no longer see your private Stories, and Snaps they send you may show as Pending, depending on your settings.
How do I remove a friend on Snapchat?
Swipe right to open Chat. Tap and hold their name. Tap Manage Friendship, then Remove Friend. You have to remove friends one at a time (Snapchat Support).
Does Snapchat notify you when someone unfollows you?
No. Snapchat does not send notifications when someone removes you as a friend or unfollows your account. The platform does not provide any built-in feature to track unfollowers. You cannot see which accounts removed you. Snapchat made this choice to reduce social pressure and negative interactions between users.
Are Snapchat unfollow tracker apps safe?
No. Snapchat unfollow tracker apps violate Snapchat's Terms of Service. Most require your password or use scraping methods that Snapchat prohibits. Using these apps can result in account suspension or permanent ban. They also pose security risks because you share login credentials with third parties. Snapchat's official API does not provide unfollower data, so any app claiming this feature uses unsupported methods.
Why do Snapchat unfollower apps exist if they violate the Terms of Service?
Many apps exploit the demand for unfollower data even though Snapchat prohibits it. These apps often charge subscription fees before users realize the service violates platform rules. Some apps are scams that collect passwords to access accounts. Others use scraping methods that can work temporarily until Snapchat detects and blocks them. Snapchat actively enforces its Terms of Service and can suspend accounts that use these apps.
Can I track Snapchat unfollowers without giving my password?
No. Snapchat's official API does not provide unfollower data or friend history. There is no legitimate way to track who unfollowed you on Snapchat. Apps that claim to do this without passwords are using scraping methods that still violate Snapchat's Terms of Service and risk account suspension. The only safe way is to check one person at a time, as shown above.
Does Unfollow track Snapchat unfollowers?
No. Unfollow does not support Snapchat because Snapchat does not provide an official API for friend history data. We only track platforms with official APIs: Bluesky, X (formerly Twitter), Twitch, YouTube, Trovo, and VKontakte. You never share a password. X, Twitch, YouTube, Trovo, and VKontakte connect through OAuth. Bluesky only needs your handle.
