How to restore your lost ‘Snapstreak’ on Snapchat
First, check if your Snapstreak is eligible to be restored. Look for a “🔥 Restore” badge next to the Chat that was on a Snapstreak. If you see it, tap the Restore option and follow the instructions in the app to get your Snapstreak back.
If the “🔥 Restore” badge is not visible, unfortunately, your Snapstreak cannot be restored. This typically indicates that too much time has passed since it ended.
However, you can still send a review request to Snapchat support to restore your ‘Snapstreak’. Follow the below steps.
Step 1: Open the Snapchat app.
Step 2: Tap your Profile icon or Bitmoji present at the top left corner.
Step 3: Tap the Settings icon present at the top right corner.
Step 4: Scroll down and select the I Need Help option.
Step 5: Tap the I Lost My Snapstreak option.
Step 6: Tap “this form” that is hyperlinked.
Step 7: Now, fill out the form and hit Submit.
