    Re-add deleted friends. If you discover that you accidentally deleted someone instead of blocking them, you will have to re-add them.
    • You can do this by tapping on the friends icon in the top right corner of the "My Friends" page, then tapping on the search icon in the far-right tab.
    • Search for the person's username, then click on the add friend icon beside it. Once they accept your request, their name will reappear on your friends list and you will be able to exchange snaps. [2]
