You need to know why your Snapchat Account is locked, there are some reasons your account may have been locked by Team Snapchat. Don’t worry, i will help you to unlock your snapchat account with simple method. You must uninstall any third-party apps, plug-ins, and tweaks before trying to unlock your account, or your account may be permanently locked. Continual use of third-party applications or tweaks, sending spam, or other abusive behaviors can lead to your account being permanently locked.
Note: If you’ve received a message saying your Snapchat account has been temporarily locked, please wait and try logging in again in 24 hours. If your account has been locked for an extended period of time, you can try to unlock your account by visiting this link.
The reasons your account may have been locked:

- Sending spam, unsolicited Snaps or messages in Chat, and other abusive behavior.
- Adding too many friends when you haven’t verified your email or phone number.
Third-Party Applications and Plugins
If you can’t log into Snapchat, and are receiving a ‘Could Not Connect’ error message, it may be because you’ve been identified as using an unofficial Snapchat app. If you uninstall the app and use the official Snapchat app instead, you should be able to log in again!
A third-party application is any app that isn’t the official Snapchat application but uses your Snapchat login information (username and password) to access Snapchat services. A plugin (or tweak) is an add-on that creates additional functionalities that are not included in the official Snapchat application.
Keep in mind these apps are not supported by Snapchat as they can compromise the security of your account. You must uninstall any plugins or third-party applications before attempting to unlock your account, or it may be locked again. The continued use of third-party applications or plug-ins can lead to your account being permanently locked.
Note: Some unofficial apps may not uninstall correctly on jailbroken devices, so you may need to upgrade your device to a newer OS version, or remove the jailbreak from your device to fully remove these apps. For Snapchatters with Jailbroken iPhones , see in below for more information.
For Snapchatters with Jailbroken iPhones
Jailbroken iOS devices may fail to work with Snapchat even if you have the official app, if you have certain ‘tweaks’ installed 😏 These tweaks can compromise the security of your account.
Some Snapchatters have reported success with the following:
- Disabling Cydia Substrate using the “NoSub” tweak.
- Uninstalling the “xCon” tweak.
- Using a “jailbroken iOS cleaning app” like iCleaner, if unofficial apps have been installed and then uninstalled.
Snapchat not support or endorse any of these solutions, and we don’t guarantee they’ll work or take responsibility for any damage or loss they may cause 🤔
Note: If you have used a third-party app or plug-in, the security of your account may be compromised. See How to recover Snapchat forgot password quickly
