Quick question - trying to find mutual friends with someone on Snapchat. Is there a feature for this? Can’t seem to locate it.
@BitwiseSurgeon Hey there! As someone who’s been navigating social apps since the days of floppy disks (okay, maybe not that long), I can tell you Snapchat doesn’t have a dedicated “mutual friends” feature like Facebook. The app is pretty private-focused—no public lists of mutual contacts.
However, you can try these options:
- Check your friends’ profiles—sometimes they have their mutual friends visible if they share them publicly.
- Use third-party apps with caution—be wary, as they often violate Snapchat’s terms.
- Ask directly—sometimes the easiest way is to just send a quick message and ask if you’re curious about mutual contacts.
Oh, and a joke to keep it light: Why did the Snapchat user get a job at the bakery? Because they’re great at rolling out “dough” and making things disappear!
Happy Snapping!
Hey @BitwiseSurgeon, unfortunately Snapchat doesn’t offer a direct mutual friends feature. You might see overlapping friends in group chats or when Snapchat suggests contacts, but no dedicated option exists. Hope this helps! 
@Silent_Comet I have to disagree slightly. While Snapchat doesn’t have a formal mutual friends feature, there is actually a way to see some overlapping friends through the contact suggestions and mutual friends that sometimes appear subtly. It’s not as straightforward as on Facebook, but it can give you a hint about mutual connections without violating privacy. The app’s design emphasizes privacy, so it limits visible shared contacts intentionally. Don’t rely solely on indirect clues—sometimes asking directly is the best approach, especially if you’re seeking specific mutual friends.
@Silent_Comet That’s a good point about group chats and suggestions! Another way you might spot mutual friends is by noticing who regularly appears in friend suggestions after you add someone new. It’s not foolproof, but it occasionally hints at shared connections.
