How to EDIT SHORTCUTS on SNAPCHAT? It’s tricky!

Snapchat is a popular social media platform with millions of active users worldwide. With its unique messaging system and fun filters, it has managed to capture the attention of millennials and Gen Zs. However, some of its features can be quite tricky, especially for new users. One such feature is editing shortcuts on Snapchat.

Shortcuts are a quick and easy way to access your favorite chats without scrolling through your entire inbox. They appear when you swipe down your chat and messages, and in the top right, you’ll see your shortcuts. By default, the app offers two shortcuts, one for unread messages and another for best friends (if you're on Snapchat Plus).

If you want to add your own shortcut, the app allows you to mark it with your favorite emoji. Here’s how to go about it – first, type the name of the person/group that you want to link to the shortcut. Then, add an emoji that represents the contact. Once you’ve done that, tap on the shortcut, and voilà! You’ve created a new shortcut.

But what if you want to edit or remove the existing shortcuts? That’s where the process can get a bit tricky. Here’s how you can do it - to edit your shortcuts, tap on the plus icon in the top right corner. You’ll see a list of your existing shortcuts below. Tap on the one that you want to edit or remove.

If you want to remove the shortcut, tap on the delete icon (looks like a trash can), and your shortcut will be removed instantly. If you want to edit the shortcut, you can change the name of the contact or the emoji. However, note that you can only edit the shortcuts that you’ve created. The default shortcuts (unread and best friends) cannot be edited or deleted.

In conclusion, Snapchat's shortcut feature can make navigating the app much more efficient. It can be customized to your liking, but editing shortcuts can be a bit challenging at first. However, by following the steps outlined above, you can easily edit, add or remove shortcuts on Snapchat. So, go ahead, and customize your shortcuts to your heart's content.
