How do you unpin someone who has blocked you on Snapchat? This guide will go over the ways you can unpin someone who has blocked you on Snapchat. 

Can You Unpin Someone Who Blocked You on Snapchat?

However; since this person has blocked you on Snapchat there will not be an option to unpin them. When even that will not work, there are different options to get this person to unpin from your conversations, even though they have blocked you.

When you are in your settings tap clear conversations, this will clear your recent conversations.

This may clear the person who blocked you from your pinned chats, if this step did not work there are other ways you can unpin the person who has blocked you on Snapchat.

2. Clear Your Cache in the App

When clearing your recent conversations does not unpin the person who has blocked you on Snapchat, another option to take is clearing your cache on Snapchat. This can easily be done by opening up your phone setting and going to the app option.

When you are in your apps then you can find Snapchat open that up and go into your storage option, there you can find the clear cache button.

This should be something you do often for your apps, clearing the cache in all your apps can keep your phone working better and longer.

Clearing the cache in your Snapchat app, this will refresh the app, and possibly unpin someone who has blocked you. This second step has not worked there is one other step you can. 

3. Uninstall The Reinstall Snapchat

Have you tried everything from clearing your recent chats to clearing the cache in Snapchat and the person who has blocked you is still showing up on your pinned list? Are you losing hope, thinking that this person is going to be stuck on your pinned list forever?

Try uninstalling Snapchat and reinstalling the app. This could be just the trick that will get the person off of your pinned list.

Uninstalling and reinstalling Snapchat will not only give you the recently updated version of the popular app, but it may also fix the pinned list on your conversations.

Since this person blocked you, uninstalling and reinstalling Snapchat may unpin the person for you. This will not only refresh your conversation list, it will also refresh the app making Snapchat work better overall.

When you only have the option to pin three people in your conversations on Snapchat, the last thing you want is to have one of those pins be someone who has blocked you on the app.
