The Sun has reached out to Snap for comment.
What should you do if your Snapchat goes down?
The Snapchat Support Twitter firstly suggests manually update your app in the App Store following a crash.
Once you’ve updated, make sure to quit and restart the app.
If this failed then users should visit the website and go to the section labelled “My Snapchats have disappeared”.
By pressing “yes” next to “still need help” you can fill out a form with more assistance.
