Snapchat doesn’t have a simple, universally shareable URL like other platforms for directly linking to your profile in a browser that people can just click and view.

Best Options:
- Snapcode: This is the most common way to share. People scan your unique Snapcode to add you.
- Username: You can tell people your username, and they can search for it in the app.
- Public Profile Link (Limited): If you have a public profile, within the app, you might find a “Share Profile” option that generates a link. However, this link typically requires the Snapchat app to open and is not a viewable web page.

Copy the URL directly from the address bar at the top of the browser window.
