How to Make Fake Snapchat Messages

Step 1

Name the other person

The name at the top of the chat. Tap the avatar to give them a picture.

Step 2

Write both sides

Add messages and tap You or Them for each. Open one to make it a photo or a voice note.

Step 3

Dark or light

The page opens dark, the measured theme. Light is one tap away and keeps every message you typed.

Step 4

Download the PNG

A 1170 × 2532 phone screenshot, no watermark, saved straight out of your browser.

What the Snapchat Screenshot Shows

Drawn

  • The header: back arrow, the friend's picture in its ring, their name, call and video buttons
  • Messages the way Snapchat lays them out: no bubbles, each run under the sender's name with a thin coloured bar down the side
  • Me in red, the friend in blue, and the time on the right of each run
  • Voice notes as the dark card with the waveform, 1x and Show Transcript
  • Photos, and the small grey day divider
  • The message box: camera, Send a chat, and the smiley, sticker and games buttons

Not drawn yet

  • Snaps and Stories
  • Bitmoji and streaks
  • Reply quotes
  • Snap Map

Snapchat's chat is not a column of bubbles, and a generator that draws bubbles gives itself away at a glance. This one was measured from a real iPhone screenshot of Snapchat's dark chat: the names, the bars, the times and the message box sit where the app puts them. The light theme keeps that layout in Snapchat's published colours, since no light capture has been measured yet.

What People Make With It

A fake Snapchat chat is usually a joke or a scene: the reply someone wishes they had sent, two lines of dialogue for a video, a story beat that has to look like it came off a phone. Designers and writers use it the same way — a screenshot in a deck or a comic that stands in for a conversation nobody wants to paste from a real phone.

Please use fake screenshots responsibly — for stories, memes, mockups, and jokes. Don't impersonate real people to deceive, defraud, or harm anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the fake Snapchat message look like the real app?
It is drawn from a real iPhone screenshot of a Snapchat chat and placed to its measurements: each run of messages under the sender's name, Me in red and the friend in blue, the time on the right, the thin coloured bar down the side, the day divider and the message box. One thing differs on purpose. Snapchat sets its chat in Avenir Next, which cannot be shipped, so the iPhone screenshot is set in SF Pro Text, sized so each line wraps where Snapchat's would.
Can I add photos, voice notes or reactions?
Yes. Open any message to turn it into a photo or a voice note, drawn as the dark card with the waveform, the 1x chip, the length and Show Transcript. Messages can take emoji reactions too, though their look has not been checked against a real Snapchat capture yet.
Can I add a Snap, a Story or Bitmoji?
Not yet. Snaps, Stories, Bitmoji, streaks, reply quotes and the map are left out until each one has been measured against a real capture, rather than guessed.
Should the screenshot be dark or light?
Dark, if it will be looked at closely: the dark chat is the one measured from a real capture, so the page opens there. Light uses Snapchat's published colours on the same layout. The sun and moon buttons switch in place and keep every message you typed.
Can the other person see a fake Snapchat message?
No. It is a picture made in your browser. Nothing is sent to Snapchat, no Snapchat account is involved, and the person whose name you type is never notified.
Does it work as an Android screenshot?
Yes. Switch the phone to Android and the same chat is drawn under the Android status bar at 1236 × 2745, close to a Pixel screenshot. The layout itself was measured on an iPhone and Snapchat's Android app differs in small ways that are not redrawn yet, so pick the iPhone when the screenshot has to survive a close look.
What size is the downloaded image?
On the iPhone it is 1170 × 2532 pixels, the native screenshot size of an iPhone 12, 13 and 14, saved as a PNG with no watermark. Pro adds a video of the chat, message by message, and larger exports as PNG, JPG or WebP.
Is anything I type uploaded?
Not unless you ask for it. The screenshot is drawn on a canvas inside your browser and the PNG is saved straight from there; the names and the messages never reach our servers. The one exception is Write with AI: the short description you type there is sent to our server to draft the conversation, and nothing else is. The only copy that outlives the tab is the draft your own browser keeps on your own device so you can come back to it.
