Understanding Snapchat Planets: Friendship Levels Decoded


Snapchat has always been known for its creative and interactive features, and with the launch of Snapchat Plus, it introduced something truly out-of-this-world — the Snapchat Planets feature. This visual tool takes your digital friendships and places them into a solar system where your friends orbit around you, the Sun. But what do these planets mean, and how do they decode your friendship levels? Let’s break it down.

What Are Snapchat Planets?

Snapchat Planets are part of the Friend Solar System, a fun and exclusive feature available to Snapchat+ subscribers. This system ranks your top eight friends based on interaction frequency — the more you chat, snap, or view each other’s stories, the closer that friend appears in your solar system.

Each friend is symbolized by a planet, and their position indicates how close you are to them on the app. Think of it as a virtual friendship tracker, with a cosmic twist.

Planet-by-Planet Friendship Levels

Here’s how Snapchat decodes your friendship levels using planets:

  1. Mercury – Your #1 Best Friend: Closest planet to your Sun. You interact the most with this person — daily snaps, chats, and stories.

  2. Venus – #2 Best Friend: Very close, just slightly behind Mercury in activity.

  3. Earth – #3 Best Friend: A strong connection, possibly someone you chat with regularly but not constantly.

  4. Mars – #4 Best Friend: Still a good friend with frequent interaction, but with a little more space.

  5. Jupiter – #5 Best Friend: Less daily contact, but still within your trusted circle.

  6. Saturn – #6 Best Friend: Friendly interactions, though occasional.

  7. Uranus – #7 Best Friend: You’ve had interactions, but not consistently.

  8. Neptune – #8 Best Friend: The outer ring of your social universe — still a best friend, but with the least engagement.

How to Check Your Snapchat Planets

If you're a Snapchat+ subscriber:

  • Open the profile of a friend

  • Tap the “Best Friends” or “Friends” badge with a gold ring

  • You’ll see their planet, which shows their ranking in your solar system

Note: Only you can see your Friend Solar System — it’s private and unique to your Snapchat activity.

Final Thoughts

Snapchat Planets aren’t just a novelty — they’re a creative reflection of your digital relationships. Whether someone is Mercury or Neptune, it gives you a deeper look at who you’re closest to on the app. It’s fun, personal, and uniquely Snapchat.

If you’re into analyzing your friendships with a touch of space magic, Snapchat Planets is the perfect way to explore your social universe.
