You may need to prevent some persons from contacting you on social media platforms in order to keep your peace. You might need to block a friend on Snapchat or simply stop strangers from messaging you at all. If you change your mind later, we can show you how to unblock people as well as how to do both.
  • To access the Chat screen, launch the Snapchat app on your smartphone and pick the Message bubble symbol, you can also open the Chat screen by just swiping right on your screen.
  • The second step is to long-press the friend's name that you want to block. Choose Manage friendship from the menu that opens.
  • Next, choose Block from the Manage friendship option. To confirm, select Block once more.

Block people on Snapchat

  • Open the Snapchat app on your smartphone in step 1.
  • Click the symbol for your profile.
  • Next, click the Settings gear icon. Locate the Account activities area at the bottom of the Settings screen. Select Blocked from this section.
  • Click the gray X icon next to the name of the person you wish to unblock on the Blocked screen. Select Yes to confirm after that.

How to stop people on Snapchat who aren't friends with you from messaging you?

Perhaps prohibiting strangers from contacting you at all on Snapchat is the problem for you rather than blocking individual Snapchat pals. If that's the case, you should be aware that you can prevent people who aren't your friends from contacting you. You must navigate to the Snapchat Settings screen in order to do this rather than the Chat screen.

Here's how to stop Snapchat messages from random people:

  • Launch the Snapchat app on your smartphone and choose the icon for your profile.
  • Next, click the Settings gear icon.
  • Select Contact me under Privacy control on the Settings screen.
  • Select the Friends option on the following screen. By doing this, you'll be sure that nobody except Snapchat friends can get in touch with you.
Another thing to keep in mind is that you can still block someone if they contact you on Snapchat. Simply click the Report or block button that appears in their chat after you open it on the Chat screen.
