CodeKitHubWhat Is This Tool?
Fake Snapchat Snap Generator recreates the real Snapchat snap interface — full-bleed background, username and Snap Score chrome, a countdown timer ring, and a bold text overlay — so you can export it as a shareable mockup image.
It must never be used to fabricate fraudulent evidence, harass or defame someone, or impersonate a real person's actual snaps — doing so may be illegal depending on your jurisdiction.
Everything is generated locally in your browser using the HTML Canvas API; nothing is ever uploaded to a server.
Why Use It?
- 100% local rendering — your content never touches a server.
- Illustrate a joke, story or presentation with a realistic Snapchat mockup.
- Prototype Snapchat-style UI concepts for an app, course or slide deck.
- No account, no upload, no watermark — just type and download.
How to Use
- Fill in your username and Snap Score (or upload a photo for the avatar).
- Pick a background color for the full-bleed snap area.
- Type your text overlay and set the timer duration in seconds.
- Watch the live preview update, then click "Download PNG" to save the image.

Responsible use
This generator exists to make it easy to create clearly fictional mockup images for humor, storytelling and design work. If you share an image made with this tool, consider adding context so viewers understand it is not a real snap.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it legal or ethical to use this tool?
The tool itself is legal to use for entertainment, mockups, presentations and design work. What is not legal or ethical is using the generated image to deceive someone. Please only use this for clearly fictional or illustrative purposes.
Does the tool upload my content anywhere?
No. Everything you type stays in your browser's memory and is drawn directly onto a canvas element with JavaScript. The PNG is generated and downloaded on your device — nothing is ever sent to a server.
Can I upload a real photo as the snap background?
The avatar circle supports a real photo upload. The full-bleed snap background uses a customizable gradient placeholder, which keeps the tool simple and avoids any temptation to pass off the mockup as a real captured snap.
What image size does it export?
The exported PNG uses a vertical 9:16 aspect ratio that matches the real Snapchat snap layout, so it looks natural when shared or embedded in a presentation.
