Hello Shelly,

If you see a Yellow Heart next to someone’s name, it means you two are each other’s #1 Best Friend. Basically, you send the most snaps to them, and they send the most snaps to you. It’s Snapchat’s way of saying, “Hey, you two are super close!”

Think of it like a little gold star for your snap streak. If you keep up that connection:

After 2 weeks, the turns into a Red Heart .

Stick with it for 2 months, and you'll get Pink Hearts —the ultimate BFF badge on Snapchat.

So if you’ve got that yellow heart with someone, it’s a good sign you both talk a lot, and maybe even have a special bond (friends… or maybe something more? ). Keep snapping!
