I am looking for tips and tricks on how to view someone’s Snapchat activity, like who they are following or have a streak with. I know Snapchat has strict privacy regulations, so I need to know all the possible solutions, such as any tools or software, that allow me to track their activity.
Hey @PixelVortex, great question, but unfortunately, Snapchat’s whole identity is based on its privacy regulations; it deliberately hides other people’s activity for privacy reasons. Back in the day, you could sort of guess based on emojis, but now even that’s limited. Unless the person shows you their screen, Snapchat doesn’t give outsiders direct access to that info.
Simple and short answer. You can’t. Snapchat doesn’t allow anyone to see what the other person is up to. But there are a few workarounds for it.
If you really want to track Snapchat activity, you can opt for monitoring tools, but to be honest, mostly these apps only provide statistics and nothing else. You can use Xnspy, which provides detailed insight into Snapchat activity as well as the overall browser history.
I have been using it for months, and except for the fact that it’s a paid tool, I haven’t faced any hassle. Also, you need one-time access to the device to install it, and after that, you can start monitoring remotely.
Uhgg, another monitoring app. Honestly, I tried switching to ezyspy, but almost all the information was missing. I couldn’t track anything because the dashboard was so tricky to use. Now you are talking about Xnspy. I am open to using it, but let’s see what the hype is about, considering my previous bad experience. 
Snapchat chats are end-to-end encrypted, so no app can reliably tell you exactly who someone’s sending snaps to.
On iOS, your best bets are:
-
Family Sharing + Screen Time to see total Snapchat use and set limits/downtime.
-
A trusted parental-control app like Xnspy or Bark, which can alert you to Snapchat activity or message previews (but won’t list every recipient).
-
Quick screen-mirroring (via AirPlay) or asking to see their notifications when they get a snap, the sender pops right up
Android touts more “deep-track” APKs, but they break with each OS or Snapchat update, come with malware risks, and still rarely deliver full names or conversations. iPhone’s locked-down security and reliable updates give you more peace of mind.
Bro, @PixelVortex, your best bet for tracking Snapchat activity is to get a monitoring app. As @NeuroFluxis mentioned, there are several parental monitoring apps out there. I use Life360, and it is great, but it won’t provide Snapchat insights. So it’s up to you.
Any app or website claiming to “track Snapchat activity remotely” is either outdated, misleading, or asking for permissions it shouldn’t have. Snapchat runs server-side there’s no magic dashboard floating around the internet. 
Let me put something in yall’s perspective, when it comes to seeing Snapchat activity, the gap between Android and iPhone is… noticeable.. So here’s the deal.
On iOS, Apple keeps everything locked down tight. You mostly get surface-level stuff like screen time usage, and that’s it. No deep insight into interactions or notifications. Apple’s philosophy is basically “privacy first, curiosity last.” Great for users, frustrating for anyone trying to understand what’s actually happening inside an app.
Android, though, plays by different rules. Because Android allows broader permissions and system-level access, certain monitoring solutions, such as you have mentioned above, the Xnspy app.
It can provide much deeper visibility, not just “Snapchat was opened,” data like who they are texting, cause the app usually has a keylogger, their Snapchat streaks, when they were online, what kind of content they are watching on Snapchat, etc.
Well, nothing good comes for free, so yes, these are paid tools, but at least they will do the job!!
So yeah
Sorry, iOS fans, this is one of those rare moments where Android really does have the upper hand. 
Why? You can’t because frankly, that’s none of your business. Lol, you can’t see someone’s Snapchat activity because that’s personal and private. Imagine the shit show it would be. If you could just click on someone’s profile and see their best friends list or who they are in contact with. The best thing you can do is check what planet you are on. Then you would at least be able to tell how many people are above you or behind you.
If you are talking about how you can see if someone is online on Snapchat or not, then you are in great trouble lol. First of all, who uses Snapchat in 2025 secondly, Snapchat doesn’t show a live “online” status or activity log like WhatsApp or Messenger. There’s no official way to see when someone is scrolling, snapping, or chatting unless they interact with you directly.
Sure! It’s called “being in a relationship built on trust.” Sadly, the App Store seems fresh out of “Suspicious Partner Surveillance 2.0.” If you need an app to monitor someone’s texts, the real question worth investigating isn’t their messages, it’s the relationship itself. That one’s free to download.
