Snapchat launched a new update yesterday which resulted in the “best friend” feature disappearing from the app.
Your “best friends” are the people you send the most snaps to and judging by a few of the tweets sent, people were unimpressed with this news.
Some on the other hand were delighted…

A few were of the opinion that this could potentially ruin relationships (and friendships) now that you’re no longer able to reassure yourself you’re number one on your significant other’s Snapchat.
Others were dismayed to learn they couldn’t “nose” at other people’s best friends lists anymore.
Snapchat was only good for nosing at people’s bestfriends

However, Snapchat’s CEO, Evan Spiegel, copped on pretty fast and made the below announcement via Twitter. Happy days.
We’ll bring back BFs soon. A few higher-profile friends wanted to keep their usernames private – we’ll come up with a better way to do that.
