What is the maximum number of participants in a Snapchat group chat?

The story behind the answer

The maximum number of participants in a Snapchat group chat is 201 participants.

Snapchat’s support documentation distinguishes between friends added and total Snapchatters in the group. One help page says a group can include “you and up to 200 friends,” which totals 201 people when the creator is included.

A separate Snapchat support page states explicitly that up to 201 Snapchatters can be in one group. This clarifies why older references commonly report the limit as 200: they counted the friends added to the group rather than all participants.

The limit applies to Snapchat group chats, not to individual conversations, Stories, or other Snapchat sharing features. Because the question asks for participants rather than friends added, 201 is the most precise answer.
