If you forget your password to your snapchat account how do you get it back?

If you forget your Snapchat username or password, you can request that it be sent to your email by filling out the form on their website, here. If you are still experiencing problems, email Snapchat at support@snapchat.me.

Snapchat was created by two Stanford students, Evan Spiegal and Bobby Murphy. The LA Times recently reported that the younger generation is moving away from Facebook, and toward formats like Snapchat, Tumblr and Twitter.

Just in- Privacy watchdog Epic Files recently filed a complaint against Snapchat with the Federal Trade Commission for tricking app users into believing that pictures are deleted immediately after being sent and opened. It turns out that so-clled "self-destructing messages" don't actually self-destruct and can be retrieved in some cases.

Snapchat says this in its privacy statement, "Although we attempt to delete image data as soon as possible after the message is received and opened by the recipient ... we cannot guarantee that the message contents will be deleted in every case."

App maker KS Mobile claims that Clean Master app can permanently delete all pictures sent by the Snapchat app. This is good news if you have an Android phone. You can get the app here.
