How do you get rid of Snapchat best friends?

On Snapchat, the "Best Friends" feature automatically shows the users you interact with the most frequently. If you want to manage or remove someone from your Best Friends list, you should know that Snapchat does not offer a direct way to specifically remove someone from the Best Friends list. However, you can manage this by adjusting your interaction patterns and privacy settings. Here's how you can influence or manage your Best Friends list:

### 1. **Adjust Your Interaction Patterns**

1. **Limit Interaction**:
   - **Reduce Snaps and Chats**: If you want to remove someone from your Best Friends list, you should interact less with them. Send fewer Snaps and messages to the person you wish to remove from your Best Friends list.

2. **Increase Interaction with Others**:
   - **Engage More with Other Friends**: Start interacting more with other friends to shift the focus. This can help change your Best Friends list by increasing interactions with different users.

### 2. **Manage Privacy Settings**

1. **Change Your Privacy Settings**:
   - **Who Can Send You Snaps**: Go to **Settings** > **Who Can...** > **Send Me Snaps** and set it to **My Friends** or a more restricted setting to limit interactions with people you don't want to be in your Best Friends list.
   - **Who Can See My Stories**: You can control who views your Stories by going to **Settings** > **Who Can...** > **View My Story** and setting it to **My Friends** or a custom list.

2. **Remove from Friends List**:
   - **Remove a Friend**: If you want to stop interacting with someone entirely, you can remove them from your friends list. To do this:
     1. Go to the **Friends** screen by swiping right on the camera screen.
     2. Tap on the friend you want to remove.
     3. Tap on their profile and select **More**.
     4. Choose **Remove Friend**. This will remove them from your friends list, and they will no longer appear on your Best Friends list.

### 3. **Adjust Who Can See Your Best Friends**

1. **Check Best Friends Visibility**:
   - **Check Visibility Settings**: Sometimes, you might want to adjust who can see your Best Friends list. In Snapchat, Best Friends are visible on the chat screen and in other places depending on your privacy settings.

2. **Control Who Can See Your Friends**:
   - **Limit Friends Visibility**: You cannot directly hide your Best Friends list from others but can manage your overall privacy settings to control who interacts with you.

### 4. **Use "Do Not Disturb" Feature**

1. **Manage Notifications**:
   - **Mute Notifications**: If you don't want to remove a friend but just want to avoid notifications, you can mute their notifications. To do this:
     1. Open the chat with the person.
     2. Tap on their name or profile icon at the top.
     3. Select **More** and then **Mute Conversation**.

### Summary

While Snapchat doesn't allow you to directly remove someone from your Best Friends list, you can influence who appears on it by changing your interaction patterns and privacy settings. To completely stop interactions, consider removing the person from your friends list. Adjust your privacy settings to manage who can interact with you and who can see your Best Friends list indirectly.
