What do you get?
Some accounts show a Bitmoji instead of a photo. When Snapchat includes it on the public page, SnapViewer offers the full render: 1050×1400 pixels in our test, as a 22 KB WebP and a 270 KB PNG with a transparent background. Many public creator profiles show a photo and no Bitmoji; then there is nothing to save.

Which app opens it on Android?
Google Photos (On this device) or Files.
How do you keep it with your photos?
Google Photos shows pictures and videos saved by other apps under Collections › On this device (device folders), so a downloaded file can be viewed there.
What should you know on Android?
Google's help does not give one fixed folder path because phone makers choose it; open the Files app and look at Recents.
What if the download does not show up on Android?
- Check the Files app first: In Chrome, tap More (top right) › Downloads. Files by Google also lists new downloads under Recents.
- Make sure the profile is public. Friends-only Stories and private accounts cannot be read without logging in, and this tool never asks for a Snapchat password.
- Download links expire after one hour. If a button stops working, look the username up again.
- Stories disappear from Snapchat after a while; if a snap is gone from the profile, it is gone here too.

No. SnapViewer is an independent tool and is not affiliated with Snap Inc. It only reads public profiles.
Can I see private or friends-only content?
No. Only public profiles and public Stories can be read without logging in. Anything shared with friends only is out of reach, by design.
Why is there no Bitmoji for this profile?
Snapchat only includes a Bitmoji on some public pages; many creator profiles show a photo instead. When it is not on the public page, there is nothing to save.
Does the PNG have a transparent background?
Yes. The PNG keeps the transparent background, so you can place the Bitmoji on any colour. The WebP is smaller.
