What Does Snapchat Mean by "Other Snapchatters"?
"Other Snapchatters" are people who have viewed your Story but don't follow you. It may answer one puzzle, but it also opens up other ones.
Let's take a deeper look at the people we're going to call "Other Snapchatters." Here are some scenarios where someone might be a part of "Other Snapchatter" in your story views.
1. You have not added them on Snapchat.
A public Snapchat account's "Other Snapchatters" list on a Story view indicates that these users are not yet added as friends. They could also be people who sent you friend requests, but you haven't accepted them yet.
These are the methods through which you can investigate these "Other Snapchatters" and decide whether or not to add or accept them as friends.
Launch Snapchat and select the profile icon from the menu.
Use the arrow buttons to navigate the list of viewers and then click on My Story.
You can see who isn't your friend on Snapchat by scrolling through the list of names under "Other Snapchatters."
Select the people or their names to check out their profiles.
2. You are no longer a friend.
When a Snapchat friend watches your Story, their username will appear below the regular story viewers. If someone you thought was your friend on Snapchat suddenly appears in your Story feed under the heading "Other Snapchatters," it signifies you are no longer friends with them.
It's likely that your friend has stopped following you and is now what we call an "other." On Snapchat, you may see if a friend has unfriended you in one of two ways.
First, launch Snapchat and scroll down to the conversation bar.
Next, look for your friend's name from the list.
When someone unfriends you on Snapchat, the status will change to "Status is Pending," and a gray arrow will appear next to their name.
You may also check your Snapchat score to see if someone has unfriended you. Specifically, here is what you do:
You may check if someone has unfriended you on Snapchat by searching for that person.
Then, go ahead and tap on their name to access their profile.
Check if you can see their Snapchat score. They have unfollowed you from Snapchat if you can't.
When someone unfriends you on Snapchat, the app won't notify the person that you've unfriended them. If you want to know if the "Other Snapchatter" is someone who has unfollowed you, try the solutions presented above.
3. A user has blocked you.
Someone who appears in "Other Snapchatters" after viewing your Story may have blocked you. But let's not jump to judgments. Instead, let's find out if you have been blocked.
Launch Snapchat and tap the search or magnifying glass in the top left.
Follow the prompts to find the person whose username you entered.
They may have blocked you on Snapchat if you don't see their name pop up.
Key Takeaways
Snap Inc.'s decision not to inform its users about the meaning of the new term "Other Snapchatters" seems puzzling. We can consider only three explanations. The first category includes Snapchatters. You still need to add who has added you. Another possibility is that they were formerly your friends but unfriended you after viewing your stories. The third possibility is that they are friends who have blocked you after viewing your accounts.
