Why can’t I access Snapchat?
Some countries, like China and Iran, restrict access to Snapchat for their inhabitants. They usually base these restrictions on concerns about the content shared on the platform, the Western influence, or the desire to promote their own (heavily monitored) alternatives.
The administrator at your school, dorm, or work might use a firewall to block everyone’s access to Snapchat. It’s meant to discourage employees and students from wasting time on social media instead of focusing on their work.
Some parents choose to use parental control software and features to limit the content their kids can access. It could be a built-in functionality on your device or a router-level permission control. It is usually meant to protect minors from potentially harmful content.

Where is Snapchat blocked?
Snapchat is completely banned in all of Iran, China, Cuba, and North Korea. Many workplaces, schools, and universities also block access to Snapchat and other social media platforms on their networks.
How a VPN for Snapchat works
Once you connect to a VPN, it hides your IP address and encrypts your internet traffic. This way, your ISP or network administrator is unable to tell what websites you’re visiting or which apps you use, so they let your network pass.
A VPN will allow you to use Snapchat even in regions with heavy internet restrictions. Simply connect to a server back home, get a new IP address, and it will be like you never left.
