What Do the Snapchat Icons Mean?
Snapchat icons can get confusing, but here’s a quick rundown: sent (red arrow), delivered (purple arrow), opened (blue arrow), and replayed (green arrow). Then, chats are represented with speech bubbles: sent (grey), delivered (blue), and opened (square). Easy peasy!

Each Snapchat icon tells you the status of your Snap or chat. A filled arrow means sent, an outlined arrow means opened, and a double arrow means replayed. Color matters too: red is for Snaps without audio, purple is with audio, and blue is for chats.
Sent icon is solid arrow, delivered is empty arrow. Blue is for chat, purple for video, red for pics. Replays show double arrows. Simple, huh?
Trust me, you’ll memorize those icons after just a few Snaps. Just remember: red - pic, purple - video, blue - chat. The fill shows the status.
