Does the Green Dot on Snapchat Show Real-Time Activity?

digijadu001
Many users wonder, how long does the green dot stay on Snapchat? This green dot signals that a person is online, making it easier to see who is available for a chat.

Snapchat typically keeps the green dot visible for up to 8 hours after the last activity. However, this is only if the user has not closed the app completely. If they log out or force-close Snapchat, the green dot disappears sooner.

Some users have noticed that the green dot doesn’t always show real-time activity. Sometimes, the dot remains even when the person is inactive. This could be due to background app usage or system delays in updating the status.

To check if someone is truly online, try:
Sending them a message and checking if it is opened quickly.
Looking at their Snapscore updates, as frequent updates indicate activity.
Checking for Stories or Bitmoji movements, which can signal real-time presence.

Do you think Snapchat should improve the accuracy of the green dot feature? Share your opinions here!
