Frequently Asked Questions

How does two-factor authentication work on Snapchat?

The two-factor authentication is a security feature that most social media handles, including Snapchat, have added to provide their users an extra level of security. Now, let’s tell you how it works:

Once you enable the two-factor authentication on your Snapchat account, every time you log into your account by entering your username and password, you’ll be asked to enter another login code that Snapchat sends to your registered mobile number in a text message. And without this code, you won’t be able to log into your account.

Can I make a new Snapchat account using an old email address or mobile number?

Yes and no. When it comes to mobile number, more than one Snapchat accounts could be linked to a single mobile number. However, such a thing is not possible in the case of an email address. In other words, you cannot create a new Snapchat account using an old email address that is already registered with another Snapchat account.
