Snapchat's 2024 Snap Recap: A Year in Review
Looking back on the past year? Many apps now offer year-end recaps, and Snapchat is no exception with its new 2024 Snap Recap feature.
What is Snap Recap?
Unlike last year, 2024 marks the debut of Snapchat's Snap Recap. Similar to Spotify Wrapped or Twitch recaps, it compiles your year's Snapchat data into a fun (and maybe slightly embarrassing) highlight reel. However, unlike those services, Snap Recap doesn't focus on detailed statistics. Instead, it selects a single Snap from each month of the year, offering a visual journey through your 2024. The recap seamlessly transitions into the Memories feature, allowing you to explore further flashbacks from past years.
Accessing Your 2024 Snap Recap
Finding your recap is simple. On the main camera screen, swipe up to access Memories (don't press the shutter button). Your 2024 Snap Recap should be prominently displayed as a highlighted video.

Tap the recap (avoiding the share icon) to view your curated selection of Snaps. The recap plays automatically, but you can tap the screen to advance through the months. You can save, edit, share, or even add it to your Story, just like any other Snap. Remember, it remains private unless you choose to share it.
Why No Recap?
If your 2024 Snap Recap isn't appearing, don't panic. Snapchat states that the rollout is gradual, and yours may not be ready yet. The number of saved Snaps is a key factor; infrequent use might explain its absence. Unfortunately, Snapchat support confirms that you cannot request a recap if it doesn't generate automatically.
