How to Enable or Disable the Snapchat Friend Solar System Feature

Snapchat's Friend Solar System (also known as Snapchat Planets) is an exclusive feature for Snapchat+ subscribers that visually represents your closest friends as planets orbiting around your profile (the "sun"). The closer a friend is to your profile, the higher they rank in your friendship interactions.

How to Enable the Snapchat Friend Solar System Feature

Open Snapchat and tap your profile icon (Bitmoji) in the top-left corner.
Tap the ⚙️ Settings icon in the top-right corner.
Scroll down and select "Snapchat+" under the "My Account" section.
Under "Friend Solar System," toggle the switch ON (green).
Exit settings—your Friend Solar System is now active!

Once enabled, you (and your friends if they also have Snapchat+) will see planet badges next to their names in your chat list, indicating their position in your "solar system."

How to Disable the Snapchat Friend Solar System Feature

Open Snapchat and go to your profile.
Tap the ⚙️ Settings icon.
Select "Snapchat+".
Under "Friend Solar System," toggle the switch OFF (gray).
The feature will no longer display friend rankings.
Note: Disabling this feature will remove the planet badges from your chats, but your friends may still see their position in your solar system if they have Snapchat+.

Final Thoughts

The Friend Solar System is a fun way to visualize your closest Snapchat connections. Since it's a Snapchat+ exclusive, you'll need an active subscription to use it.
