Saw a little planet badge on someone’s profile and had no clue what it was? Totally normal. It’s part of a Snapchat Plus thing called the Friend Solar System<\/a> and once you get the basic idea it actually makes a lot of sense. Here’s what’s going on.<\/span><\/p>\n

So What Are Snapchat Planets?<\/span><\/h1>\n

Short version: you’re the Sun. Your top eight friends on Snapchat become planets orbiting around you. The closer they sit to you the more you interact with them on the app.<\/span><\/p>\n

The planet order matches the real solar system. Mercury is first and closest, then Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in that order. So your Mercury is basically your number one person on Snapchat. Your Neptune made the top eight but is the least active of the group.<\/span><\/p>\n

One thing that trips people up though. The ranking isn’t mutual. You might be someone’s Mercury while they sit at Jupiter in yours. Each solar system is built from that person’s own data so the positions don’t mirror each other.<\/span><\/p>\n
