• If you change your mind in the 30-day deactivation period, log back into your Snapchat account to reactivate it.

It’s simple to remove your Snapchat account if you decide you no longer want it. However, you can only do it on the Snapchat website, so you’ll need to know your username and password.

Quick tip: Make sure you’ve saved any Snapchat photographs or videos you wish to keep before you delete your account.

Keep in mind that your Snapchat account will not be deactivated immediately once you complete these instructions. It will be deactivated for 30 days, after which you will be able to reactivate it before it is permanently removed.
