What is what does it mean to follow someone on snapchat?

Following someone on Snapchat essentially means you've added them as a friend and are subscribing to their publicly shared content. Here's a breakdown:

• Adding as a Friend: When you "follow" someone on Snapchat, you're usually sending them a friend request. Once they accept, you're both considered friends on the app. This allows you to directly send Snaps and messages to each other. Read more about the Adding%20Friends process.

• Seeing Their Stories: Following also grants you access to view their Snapchat "Stories". These are collections of Snaps they've strung together, creating a narrative or sharing moments from their day. Stories disappear after 24 hours. More information can be found at Snapchat%20Stories.

• Seeing Their Public Profile: If the user has a Public%20Profile, and their settings allow it, you can also see some of their public content, even if they don't add you back. Public profiles often feature highlights or content visible to a broader audience.

• Mutual Following Not Always Required: While traditionally following meant adding someone as a friend, with the introduction of public profiles, it's possible to "follow" a public figure or creator without them needing to add you back as a friend. You'll still see their public content.

• Privacy Considerations: Remember that what you see depends on the user's Privacy%20Settings. They can choose who can view their stories and contact them.
