Simple Steps to Prevent Strangers from Messaging You on Snapchat

• Navigate to the user screen by swiping down from the top of your screen.
• Tap the gear icon, then tap "Contact Me."
• Tap "My Friends" so only your friends on Snapchat can get in touch with you.

Open Snapchat. It's a yellow icon with a ghost in the center. Enter your username and password if you're not automatically logged in.

Swipe down anywhere on the screen. Doing so takes you to the user screen.

Tap ⚙️. It's in the upper-right corner of the screen and takes you to the Settings menu.

Scroll down and tap Contact Me. It's the first selection in the "Who Can..." section of the menu.

Tap My Friends.

Tap the Back arrow. It's in the upper-left corner. Now, only people who you've added as friends on Snapchat will be able to send you messages.
