If you find that your Snapchats won’t send, it could be due to a host of different issues. Here’s how to troubleshoot your Snapchat app on both iPhone and Android devices.
What to do if your Snapchats won’t send
Check your internet connection
More often than not, if you’re having problems either sending or receiving Snapchats, the problem is probably your internet connection. It’s possible you have a weak connection, or are connected to a signal that hasn’t given you internet access (like on a plane or in a hotel).

If you’re at home, get closer to your Wi-Fi router and perhaps try restarting it. If you’re out and connected to mobile data, try turning on Airplane Mode and turning it off again to refresh your connection.
You might also want to try restarting your phone.
Restart the Snapchat app
If you know you’re not having connection issues, the issue may be with Snapchat itself. One of the easiest ways to get any app functioning properly again is to just restart it.
Force close the app on your iPhone or Android device, then reopen it and try sending your snap again.
Log out and back in
Similar to restarting the app, logging out and back into Snapchat can sometimes fix bugs. To log out of Snapchat:

1. Tap on your profile icon in the top-left corner of the Snapchat home screen.
2. Tap the settings icon in the top right corner of your profile page — it looks like a gear.
3. In the Settings menu, scroll all the way down to the bottom and tap “Log Out.”
4. Confirm that you want to log out.
After this, simply log back in the normal way and try to send your Snapchat again.
Clear the cache
If none of these methods work, sometimes clearing Snapchat’s cache will. Don’t worry: clearing your cache won’t delete any of your data.

2. Tap the settings icon in the top-right corner of your profile page.
3. Scroll down to “Account Actions” in the Settings menu and tap “Clear Cache.”
4. Tap “Clear All” at the top.
5. Confirm that you want to clear the cache. After you do so, Snapchat will restart. When it does, try sending your snap again.
Delete and reinstall Snapchat
Sometimes, apps just have bugs in them that cause issues like these.
If all else fails, you can always delete and reinstall your Snapchat app. This will act as a sort of factory reset for the app, which often helps it run smoothly again.
If this step also fails, it’s more than likely an issue on Snapchat’s end. Check Down Detector, and ask your friends if they’re having issues as well.
