Group chats are still a big part of how people use Snapchat. Snapchat says the number of people participating in group conversations increased by over 5% in 2025. Some of the most active users sent more than 8,800 messages to their top group chat over the course of the year.

Snapchat also reported higher use of expressive features. Chat Reactions grew by 44%, with the heart emoji becoming the most commonly used reaction. Sticker usage climbed too, with around three million additional users incorporating stickers into their day-to-day chats.

The arrival of this year’s Recap comes as Snapchat prepares for big changes to its Memories storage policy. Beginning in 2026, free Memories storage will be capped at 5GB. Users who exceed the limit will need to subscribe to a paid plan, starting at $1.99 per month for 100GB. Snapchat+ members will get up to 250GB of storage, while the Platinum tier will offer up to 5TB as part of its monthly subscription.
