If you're an avid Snapchat user, you're probably familiar with the app's extensive features that enhance social communication with friends. But have you delved into the fascinating realm of Snapchat Planets and Snapchat Planets Plus? Let’s take a closer look at what they are and how you can unlock these unique features.
What Are Snapchat Planets?
Snapchat Planets are a component of Snapchat Plus, a premium subscription service within the Snapchat app that enriches your overall user experience. Once you subscribe to Snapchat Plus, you'll notice a Best Friends badge adorned with a golden ring on selected Friendship Profiles. This badge indicates that these friends are among your top eight contacts, reflecting your most frequent interactions on the app.
By tapping on the badge, you can access the Snapchat Solar System, where each planet symbolizes a different ranking on your Best Friends list, adding a fun cosmic flair to your interactions.
Snapchat Planets - Order and Meaning
Just as our solar system has 8 planets, Snapchat Planets also follow this familiar lineup, arranged as follows:
- Mercury
- Venus
- Earth
- Mars
- Jupiter
- Saturn
- Uranus
- Neptune
Now, let’s dive into the unique meaning behind each planet in the Snapchat universe.
Snapchat Planets and Your Best Friends List
Mercury – Your 1st BFF
Just as Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, in Snapchat Plus, Mercury symbolizes your top BFF, the friend you interact with most through snaps and chats. If you’re someone’s Mercury, congrats! You’re their closest friend.
Venus – Your 2nd BFF
Venus comes next after Mercury, representing your second closest friend in Snapchat Plus. This friend is someone you chat with often, though slightly less than Mercury. Being someone’s Venus means you’re a trusted friend they love interacting with.
Earth – Your 3rd BFF
After Venus, Earth stands for your third BFF on Snapchat Plus. You still share a lot, but maybe a bit less than with the first two. Holding this position is a solid spot and reflects a meaningful friendship.
Mars – Your 4th BFF
Mars, the red planet, represents your fourth closest friend. You interact less with them than the previous three, but Mars still holds an important place in your friendship solar system.
Jupiter – Your 5th BFF
Jupiter, the largest planet, represents your fifth BFF in the Snapchat Planets lineup. With Jupiter, you still share and chat regularly, although not as frequently as with the others.
Saturn – Your 6th BFF
Known for its beautiful rings, Saturn represents your sixth closest friend. You interact with them less frequently, but their place in your solar system shows a stable friendship.
Uranus – Your 7th BFF
Uranus comes in at number seven. This friend is someone you still engage with, but not as often as the others. The calm, blue hue of Uranus’s icon represents a cool and steady connection.
Neptune – Your 8th BFF
Finally, Neptune represents your eighth BFF—the friend you interact with the least in your top list. While they may be last, they’re still in your orbit, showing that they’re part of your close circle on Snapchat.
How Can I Check My Rank in a Friend’s Snapchat Planet?
By now, you’ve likely got a good grasp of Snapchat Planets, but the real question is: how do you find out where you rank in a friend’s solar system? Follow these simple steps to check your position:
-
Open the Snapchat app on your mobile.
-
Navigate to your Friends list.
-
Select the friend whose solar system ranking you want to view.
-
On their profile, look under their name
- If you see a "Best Friend Badge," it means you both share a position in each other's Snapchat Planets system.
- If you see a "Friend Badge," you’re in their top 8, but they’re not in yours.
-
To find your exact position, tap on the badge to reveal it. For instance, if you see Venus, you’re their 2nd BFF!
These steps should help you quickly locate your position in your friend’s Snapchat Planet system.
