It could mean that the person is sending a blank screen on Snapchat just to increase their snap score. A snap score is a particular score you get when the number of snaps you get and send, and the number of stories you post are all combined.
These factors and some others are all combined to make up your snap score. Do not be surprised when someone sends you a black screen on Snapchat, the person may just be trying to increase their snap score.
Here are some other possible meanings why someone would send you a black screen on Snapchat.
6 Possible Meanings When Someone Sends You A Black Screen on Snapchat
-
- They do not feel pretty at that moment
- They want to get your attention

They do not feel pretty at that moment
This happens to a lot of people, a lot of people like to look so good or sit pretty before sending snaps, especially when they are sending the snaps to someone that they love.
If the person is not sitting pretty at that moment, they may resort to sending a black screen on Snapchat.
You would be able to tell that it is unlike the person, if the person is used to sending pretty snaps and all of a sudden you realize that the person sends you a black screen, then the person does not feel pretty enough to send snaps that moment.
They want to get your attention
Has the person been sending you snaps previously and you’ve been ignoring them? If yes, then they may have no choice but to send you a black screen on Snapchat hoping to get your attention.
If the person has been trying to get your attention for a while, then you should not hesitate to check out the person’s message.
It is a black message, but the person just wants your attention. Perhaps, there is something important that the person wants to tell you on Snapchat.
You should open the chat, even though it is a black message, there may be something important or important information the person wants to send to you.
They want to increase their Snapchat score
I have already explained what a Snapchat score is earlier in this article. Snapchat users always want to keep a high snap score, they get this snap score when they consistently send and receive snaps, and when they also post on their stories.
There are days when people do not have any idea of what to send and they would not want to go a day without sending snaps. In a situation like this, the person would have to resort to sending a black screen on Snapchat.
That way, the person has kept his Snapchat score while sending a black screen.
Snapchat would still count it as a snap, they would not be able to tell if it was a black screen snap or a regular snap.
It is the person’s way of ignoring you
That could be the person’s way of ignoring you. It could be someone that you have been trying to reach for a long while, you must have sent multiple snaps but the person never replies to you.
The moment the person sends you a black screen on Snapchat even without replying to your previous messages, you should know by now that the person is ignoring you and does not have plans of replying to your messages either.
If the person wanted to talk to you, you would have got a reply, since you keep getting a black screen reply, the person just wants to send a snap and ignore you at the same time.
They do not want to chat
It is as simple as that, someone who wants to hold a conversation with you will always have something to say to you or will reply to your snaps.
But when you notice that you have been sending snaps without a reply, then all of a sudden the person sends you a black screen, just knowing the person does not want to continue the conversation.
In a situation like this, you do not need to continue the conversation when you get a black screen message on Snapchat, you should know that the person is not interested in the conversation and does not want to continue the conversation.
To keep his Snapchat streak
A Snapchat streak is usually kept when you and your friend have snapped at each other in 24 hours or more than three days in a row. Sometimes, that is what the person cares about the most.
He just wants to keep a high Snapchat streak with you but he is not interested in chatting with you.
When next a person sends a blank snap, check to see if the person has a high Snapchat streak, if that is the case, then you should not be annoyed that the person is sending a blank snap, understand that he is just keeping a streak.

You can send a black screen with text on it telling the person what you are doing at that moment or telling the person something random.
If you do not want to express yourself with a text you can simply send a blank screen, then if the person is concerned he would ask why he is getting the same energy from you. You can explain if you care to explain why.

Sometimes you do not know what is going through someone’s mind or why the person did what he did. That is why you need to ask questions when you see someone do something unusual.

Get the message and move on
If the person sends you a blank message, he probably just wants to keep sending snaps to you without having a conversation with you in the real sense, someone who just wants to keep sending blank snaps to you is only concerned about his snap score and is less concerned about having a conversation with you.
By now, you should understand the message already, the person is not interested in having a conversation with you, you can as well get the message and move on with no hard feelings.
Sometimes, you do not have to wait for someone to tell you his mind plainly, you should be able to read the signs.
