Uranus on Snapchat represents the seventh position in a friend’s Friend Solar System. This Snapchat+ feature uses the eight planets to show where you appear in another person’s Best Friends ranking when the feature is available and enabled.
The badge does not reveal an exact interaction score or measure the real value of a friendship. Snapchat does not publish a complete mathematical formula for its rankings.
My Personal Experience with Uranus on Snapchat
People often search for Uranus on Snapchat after seeing a green planet on a friend’s profile. The key detail is the position it represents, not a score or judgment about the friendship. Uranus is the seventh planet in the Friend Solar System sequence.
For the eighth position, see our guide to Neptune on Snapchat.
What Does Uranus on Snapchat Actually Mean?
Friend Solar System is a Snapchat+ feature that represents a subscriber’s position in another person’s Best Friends list with a planet. If you see Uranus on a friend’s profile, it represents the seventh position from that friend’s perspective. It may not match your own ranking.
The Visual Breakdown
- Planet: Uranus represents position seven in the eight-planet sequence.
- Appearance: Its illustration may look green or teal depending on the app artwork and display.
- Meaning: It indicates a relative position, not a friendship score or a measure of real-life closeness.
Why Are You Ranked #7?
Uranus indicates the seventh position in the displayed ranking. Snapchat describes Best Friends as people you Snap and Chat with most, but it does not publish a public point system explaining each planet change. A Snapstreak does not guarantee a particular planet.
The Snapchat Plus Friendship Solar System at a Glance
The eight positions follow the familiar solar-system order: Mercury first, Venus second, Earth third, Mars fourth, Jupiter fifth, Saturn sixth, Uranus seventh, and Neptune eighth. These labels show relative positions, not an exact score or proof that both friends rank each other identically.

How to Move Up from Uranus to a Higher Rank
You cannot manually select a planet or force a specific position. The badge reflects the ranking shown by Friend Solar System. Communicate naturally instead of treating the feature as a contest; Snapchat does not publish a guaranteed method for changing rank.
1. Stop Just Sending “Streak” Snaps
A streak Snap is not a guaranteed ranking strategy. Send something relevant or start a conversation because you genuinely want to talk, not because you expect a planet to change.
2. Use the Chat Feature
Chat when you have something to say and reply naturally. Snapchat does not publish a formula proving that text messages raise a planet rank faster than Snaps, so no action should be treated as a shortcut.
3. Interaction Must Be Mutual
Snapchat has not disclosed exactly how each person’s actions affect a planet position. Avoid sending repeated messages to influence a ranking. Respect boundaries and let the friendship develop naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions
These answers cover common questions about Uranus, Friend Solar System visibility, and what the planet badge can and cannot tell you.
Does my friend know I’m checking their solar system?
Snapchat does not document a dedicated notification for simply checking a Friend Solar System badge. Other actions may have separate visibility rules, so do not assume this applies to Story views, screenshots, or every feature.
Why don’t I see any planets on my friend’s profile?
Check your Snapchat+ access and whether Friend Solar System is enabled in the feature settings. Planet badges may also be unavailable if the feature is not active or you do not appear in that friend’s displayed ranking. Menus may vary by app version.
Can I manually change someone’s planet?
No. You cannot drag a friend to a different planet or assign a position directly. The planet represents the ranking provided by Friend Solar System.
What is the difference between the “Best Friends” and “Friends” badge?
Snapchat uses separate Best Friends and Friends labels in the Friend Solar System experience. These labels provide context about the ranking shown; they are not the same as the planet itself, and their presentation may change as Snapchat updates the interface.
Martin’s Final Tip
Uranus on Snapchat means the seventh Friend Solar System position. It is an app indicator, not a verdict on your friendship or personal worth. The ranking formula is not public, so be cautious about claims promising a guaranteed way to change it.
