  • Bugs and App Glitches: These affect the app’s performance. So, Snapchat does not work properly and causes log-in errors. So, to remove these bugs, update the app and check if the error appears or not.
  • Crashed/ Filled Cache: When the app’s cache fills or crashes, it does not allow it to retrieve any app file to further process and causes log-in issues for the user. The user can clear the cache to fix the log-in problem.
  • Locked Account: When Snapchat finds someone suspicious, who might try to enter your account, it ultimately locks the account and ask to recover it by verifying the user Id. In this case, you can go and change your password and recover your account.
