A small cartoon baby face. On Snapchat it's a platform-specific signal — you've just become friends with this contact, brand-new addition. Shows up briefly (a few days) after adding someone, then disappears as the friendship status updates. Outside Snapchat it means literal baby, newborn announcements, "such a baby" mock-coding, or the soft / pure / wholesome reaction. The Snapchat meaning is short-lived but heavily searched.

A yellow face with a wide, awkward grimace showing teeth. On Snapchat it's the platform's "awkward overlap" indicator — your #1 best friend is also this person's #1 best friend, meaning there's someone else between you. Outside Snapchat it just reads as "yikes / awkward / I don't know how to respond". The Snapchat-specific meaning catches people off guard the first time they see it.
A yellow smiling face wearing dark sunglasses. On Snapchat specifically, it's a platform-assigned indicator that you and this contact share a close friend in common — one of your best friends is also one of theirs. The Snapchat meaning is auto-calculated; outside Snapchat it's a generic "I'm feeling cool / confident / unbothered" reaction. Both meanings coexist depending on where it appears.
A round white-iced cake with three lit candles. Universal birthday emoji. On Snapchat specifically, it appears next to a friend's name on their birthday if they have Birthday Party Mode enabled, prompting you to send a birthday snap. Outside Snapchat it's the standard birthday reaction across every platform, age group and generation. Pairs with 🎉, 🥳 and 🎈 in birthday-post comment sections.

A yellow heart. On Snapchat it's a platform-specific signal — you and this contact are each other's #1 best friend, meaning you send the most snaps to them and they send the most to you. Outside Snapchat it's general affection or friendship love (less romantic than ❤️). The Snapchat meaning is what most people search for; auto-assigned by the app, not chosen by users.
