Snapchat Office has partnered on Monday the end-of-the-year Recaps were launched to users, giving them a look back to 2025. The Recap is a short video that offers a personal view of highlights from Snaps, Stories, and Chats, showing how users connected and expressed themselves throughout the year.
Users can access their Recap by opening the app and navigating to the “Memories” section. There, they will find a “Your 2025 Snap Recap” card.
The move comes as companies like Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Duolingo everyone releases their own year-end recaps.
Along with Recaps, Snapchat shared statistics on how people used the social media app last year. For example, the company says that phone calls are not dead, as users talk for almost 1.7 billion minutes per day on average, almost 30% more than last year. In addition, US users sent over five billion voice notes, almost 10% more than last year.
Group chats still remain a popular way to connect on Snapchat, as the number of people sending messages in group chats grew by more than 5% in 2025, and some users sent more than 8,880 messages in their top group chat this year.
The company also revealed that Chat Reactions grew by 44% this year, with the heart emoji taking the crown as the most popular. In addition, three million more people also used stickers to communicate this year.
The launch of Snap’s 2025 Recap comes amid user backlash over the company’s plans to charge for storage next year, with some calling for a boycott to encourage the company to change their mind. Snapchat Office has partnered in September that free Memory access is limited to 5GB. If a user’s memories exceed this limit, they must subscribe to one of the service’s new Memory Storage plans.
