If you've decided someone's no longer worth your Snapchat time, deleting them is a straightforward process. Open Snapchat and go to the chat with the person you want to delete.
First, you'll need to block them to prevent any further unwanted interactions. To do this, go to the chat with the person, tap the three dots on the top right corner, and select "Block."
Blocking someone on Snapchat also removes them from your friends list. This means you won't see any of their snaps or stories, and they won't be able to contact you.
To confirm that the person has been blocked, go to your settings and select "Blocked Contacts."

When you block someone, messages from them will show as "Pending" on their phone, but you won't receive them. This is a more drastic measure than removing someone, which is what we'll cover next.
