Snapchat Spotlight 👻
Snapchat is now a first-class platform in viral.app, alongside TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and Facebook Reels.
Paste a public profile or snap URL and it tracks like every other platform in viral.app:
snapchat.com/@usernamefor an account and its recent Spotlight snapssnapchat.com/@username/spotlight/…for a single snap
Three things Snapchat does differently:
- Likes are Spotlight hearts, called boosts. We track them as the like count, matching what Snapchat's own web player shows on a snap.
- Creators can hide view counts on individual snaps. Hidden views show as N/A instead of 0, and virality is not computed for those snaps.
- Only a creator's 30 most recent snaps are trackable. A newly added account cannot access the full video catalog, but can build historic data over time.
