This wikiHow will teach you how to find out who's birthday it is on Snapchat by looking at your friend list. Unfortunately, it isn't possible to someone's birthday in advance, as the special birthday cake emoji won't appear until the person's actual birth date.

Things You Should Know

  • Open Snapchat and navigate to the My Friends list in the profile page.
  • Look for the cake emoji next to your friends’ names. This indicates that it’s their birthday!
  1. This app icon looks like a ghost on a yellow background that you can find on one of your Home screens, in the app drawer, or by searching.
  2. You'll see this in the top left corner of your screen next to the magnifying glass.

  3. It's under the "Friends" header.
