Snapchat Update Quietly Removed “Best Friends” Feature, Upsetting Some Users
Yesterday, we reported on the arrival of Discover for Snapchat, and only afterwards was it discovered that the app’s “best friends” feature, which shows users’ top three most popular friends, had been quietly removed.
This, of course, angered a few users on the internet, who decided to voice their opinions via Twitter and other social media.
Luckily, however, it looks like the feature will “soon” be making a comeback as shown by a recent tweet by Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel on Twitter:
We'll bring back BFs soon. A few higher-profile friends wanted to keep their usernames private – we'll come up with a better way to do that.

So if you’re on one of the users who were upset by the feature’s removal, you’ll soon get your wish and have it returned to you, as soon as Snapchat comes up with its “better way” of keeping the feature private for those who choose it to be.
