Is this the official Snapchat web app?

No. Snapchat's official web app (web.snapchat.com) is for logged-in chatting. This viewer is an independent tool that displays public profile content without any login.

Do I need a Snapchat account?

No — that's the whole point. Enter a public username and the profile opens, no credentials involved.

Can I chat or send snaps with it?

No. The web viewer is read-only: it displays public stories, highlights, and Spotlight. Chatting and posting need the official app.

Is browsing like this anonymous?

Yes. No Snapchat session is involved, so your name never enters any viewer list — the same mechanism as the rest of this site.

Does it work on phones, or just desktop?

Both. The same layout serves mobile and desktop — desktop is simply where a one-page profile browser shines.

Can I open private accounts?

No. Private accounts don't publish a public page, so there is nothing to read. This tool shows public profiles only.

Yes, with no account and no limits.

It reads publicly published content the way a search engine does and stores nothing about you. Not affiliated with Snap Inc. — and stalking or harassment is never okay.

How to browse Snapchat on the web

One page, everything public — three steps.

1
Enter a username or link
Type a public username or paste a snapchat.com profile link into the box above.
2
The profile opens as a web page
Bio, stats, stories, highlights, and Spotlight — everything public, laid out on one page.
3
Browse away
Play videos, flip through highlights, download what you like. Close the tab when you're done.

Snapchat in your browser, without the app

Built for the big screen

A profile with stories, highlights, and Spotlight is far nicer on a desktop monitor than inside a phone app.

Zero install

No app store, no updates, no storage. If your device has a browser, it works.

No account, ever

The official Snapchat web app wants a login. This viewer reads public pages — no credentials involved.

Everything on one page

Stories, highlights, and Spotlight load as tabs on a single profile page instead of being buried in app navigation.

Anonymous by design

No session means no trace — your name never shows up in any viewer list.

Fast and free

Media streams straight from Snapchat's CDN. No signup, no paywall.

Web viewer vs the Snapchat app

The Snapchat app is for participating: chatting, posting, sharing with friends. It needs an install and an account.

This web viewer is for watching: it reads the public pages Snapchat already serves to logged-out browsers and lays them out on one clean page. Read-only by design — you can't chat, post, or see anything private.

If participating is what you need, use the official app. If watching public content is the job, this is the lighter way.
