Snap Planets Order Explained!
If we talk about snap planets so every planet in the snapchat solar system represents a position of your friends which regards them as your closest friend or best friend. The user who is the owner of the account is identified as the sun of the snapchat solar system, which means the distance between sun and the other planets will help you to know your closeness with other planets which are your friends with whom you share your snaps everyday.
For instance, the mercury is the closest planet to the sun and it called to be your closest friends and this ultimately means you share your most of the snaps with that friend. And just like that Neptune which is the farthest planet, is called to be your eighth best friend.
