On Snapchat, the live location feature allows users to share their real-time location with friends. When a user’s location is shared, it may appear on the Snap Map. The orange color on the map typically indicates that the user is currently active and sharing their location. Here’s a breakdown of what the colors mean on Snapchat’s Map:
- Orange: This color indicates that the user is actively sharing their live location. It shows that they are currently online and their location is being updated in real time.
- Blue: This color indicates that the user has shared their location but is not currently active. This is a more static representation of their last known location.
- Gray: This color indicates that the user has either disabled location sharing or has not shared their location at all.
It’s important to note that users can control when and with whom they share their location. If a user chooses not to share their location, their Bitmoji or avatar will not appear on the map. Additionally, Snapchat allows users to set a timer for how long they want to share their location, adding a layer of control over privacy.
Always ensure that you’re aware of your privacy settings and who can see your location when using features like live location sharing.
