Snapchat's 2024 Year in Review: Your Snap Recap
Looking back on the year? Many apps offer year-end recaps, and Snapchat's new 2024 Snap Recap is here to help you reflect on your year.
What is a Snap Recap?
Unlike last year, Snapchat now offers a year-end recap. Similar to Spotify Wrapped or Twitch recaps, Snap Recap compiles your year's Snapchat data into a fun (and maybe slightly embarrassing) highlight reel. However, it doesn't focus on detailed statistics like the number of Snaps sent. Instead, it selects a single Snap to represent each month of the year. The recap also seamlessly transitions into other Memories features, showing flashbacks from the same dates in previous years.
How to View Your 2024 Snap Recap
Accessing your 2024 Snap Recap is simple. On the main camera screen, swipe up to access Memories (don't press the shutter button). Your 2024 Snap Recap should appear as a highlighted video at the top of the Memories screen.

Tap the recap (avoiding the share icon) to view it. The selected photos and videos will play automatically. You can tap the screen to advance if you wish. You can save, edit, share, or even add your Snap Recap to your Story. Like other Snaps, it remains private unless you choose to share it.
Why Don't I Have a Snapchat Recap?
If your 2024 Snap Recap isn't showing up, don't worry. Snapchat Support states the rollout is gradual, and yours may not be ready yet. The number of saved Snaps is a factor; infrequent use might prevent a recap from being generated. Unfortunately, if it doesn't appear after a while, you can't request one.
