### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

- Don't worry if you're perplexed because you received a blank snap with a **'S'** on it; you're not alone. The 'S' on the snap, it turns out, stands for **'Streaks.'** [**Snapchat's**](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/96341/what-are-snapchat-story) Snapstreaks feature ensures you don't forget about your friends. Snapstreaks happen when two people exchange snaps for three days in a row.
- To distinguish a 'Streak' snap from a regular snap, the letter 'S' is used. Snapchat streaks are all the rage. While Streaks may not provide you superpowers, they do provide you with bragging rights and a small flame emoji next to your name on your friend's account.
- As a result, if someone sends you a snap for a streak, you should keep it going. If you have already completed your streaks or plan to do so later, you may either reply with a picture or simply open it.
