So, there I was, scrolling through Snapchat, when I stumbled upon a ghost I hadn't seen in ages. You know the drill, right? The ghost that haunts your friend list, but you can't quite remember why you added them in the first place. I mean, who hasn't been there?
Anyway, I thought to myself, "Self, it's time to declutter this friend list." And that's when it hit me - how do you actually delete a person on Snapchat? I mean, it's not like they make it super obvious, right? So, let's dive in, shall we?
First Things First: Why Delete?
Before we get into the nitty-gritty, let's talk about why you might want to delete someone. Maybe they're sending you snaps of their breakfast (yawn), or maybe they've just fallen off the face of the Earth and you don't want their ghost haunting your list anymore. Whatever the reason, you're here because you want them gone.

But Wait, What About Blocking?
You might be thinking, "Why not just block them?" Well, blocking is a bit more... permanent. When you block someone, they can't see your snaps or your story, and they can't send you snaps. But when you delete, it's a bit more subtle. They won't know you've deleted them, and you can always add them back if you change your mind. It's like the Snapchat version of 'it's not you, it's me' - you know?
Alright, Let's Do This: Deleting on Mobile
Ready to say goodbye? Here's how you do it on your mobile:
- Open Snapchat and go to your profile by tapping on your Bitmoji or profile picture.
- Tap on the settings icon (it's the gear icon in the top right corner).
- Scroll down to 'My Friends' and tap on it.
- Find the person you want to delete. Tap on their name.
- Scroll down and tap on 'Remove Friend'.
- Confirm by tapping 'Remove' again.
And just like that, they're gone. Poof! Like they were never there. Well, almost. They'll still be able to see your snaps and stories if you've set your account to public, so keep that in mind.
What About Deleting on Web?
If you're a web person, don't worry, I haven't forgotten about you. Here's how you do it on the web:

But What If You Change Your Mind?
Life's full of surprises, right? What if you delete someone and then, a week later, you're like, "You know what? I actually miss their snaps." Fear not, dear Snapchatter. You can always add them back.
To add someone back, just tap on the '+' icon in the search bar at the top of your friends list. Type in their username, and tap on 'Add' next to their name. And just like that, they're back in your life. No hard feelings, right?
And that, my friend, is how you delete a person on Snapchat. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Now go forth and curate that friend list. Your Snapchat life deserves it.
