# What happens if you delete the Snapchat app?
If you’re thinking about deleting the Snapchat app, there are a few things you should be aware of. Here are some of the things you can expect:
## Your account will still exist
Deleting the Snapchat app from your phone does not mean that your account will be deleted. However, if you don’t log in for a certain period of time, typically around 30 days, your account may be deactivated. Here are some of the things that will happen if you delete the app:
– Your Snaps and Chats will be deleted from your device, but they will still exist on Snapchat’s servers for 30 days.
– You won’t be able to receive or send Snaps or Chats until you reinstall the app and log in to your account.
– You won’t be able to see your friends’ stories or send them messages until you reinstall the app and log in to your account.
– Your Bitmoji account will still exist, but you won’t be able to use it in other apps until you reinstall the Snapchat app.
## Your friends won’t be notified
If you delete the Snapchat app, your friends won’t be notified. However, they may notice that you’re no longer active on the app, and they may wonder why. If you want to let your friends know that you’re deleting the app, you can send them a message or post on your Story before you delete it.
## Your Snapstreaks will end
If you have any Snapstreaks, deleting the Snapchat app will end them. Snapstreaks are a feature that encourages you to send Snaps to friends every day, and they’re represented by a fire emoji next to your name. If you’ve been keeping up a Snapstreak with a friend and you delete the app, the streak will end.
## Your memories won’t be deleted
If you use Snapchat’s Memories feature to save your Snaps, deleting the app won’t delete your memories. However, you won’t be able to access them until you reinstall the app and log in to your account.
## Conclusion
In conclusion, deleting the Snapchat app will have some consequences, but your account will still exist and you can always reinstall the app if you change your mind. If you’re thinking about deleting the app, it’s important to be aware of these consequences so you know what to expect.
