Increasing Your Snapchat Score

Are you curious about how Snapchat determines your Snapscore? The Snapchat score (Snapscore) is calculated using the number of Snaps sent and received and how often you post to your Story. While Snapchat keeps the other factors of your Snapscore a secret, it's likely that the score also takes into account how often you keep Snapstreaks, look at Spotlight content, and interact on the Discover page. It’s easy to check your score — it’s on your profile page! This How.com.vn guide will teach you how Snapchat scores work, and give you expert tips for increasing your own Snapscore.
