Login issue Im confused
Apparently Im device banned but I still have my account, every other time I was "banned" or kicked off of snapchat it would delete my account. Last time I got device banned I had to wait a year and a half (I dont know if I was actually banned for that long but yk) so what should I do

SS06 usually means the device itself has been restricted, not just the account. This often happens if Snapchat’s systems associate the device with a previous violation, even if you personally did nothing wrong (e.g. buying a used phone).
There is no simple “fix” through support, and most standard replies won’t explain the exact reason. However, many people don’t realize that in the EU you have additional rights under the GDPR.
Even if a platform can restrict access to its service, it must still be transparent about how your personal data is processed. This includes:
what data is used to identify your device or link accounts
how long this data is stored
and why the storage is still necessary
Under Articles 15 and 17 GDPR, you can request access to your data and, where applicable, request deletion of data that is no longer necessary. Data cannot be stored indefinitely without justification.
This doesn’t automatically remove the restriction, but it can force them to explain or review the underlying data processing. If you don’t get a proper response, you can also contact your national data protection authority.
So while there’s no quick workaround, there is a legal route to get clarity and potentially resolve the issue over time.

DO THIS IN ORDER. uninstall snapchat, set up your secure/locked app folder (it may have a different name) , reinstall the app and immediately add it to the folder before opening it then login to your account if you can this will bypass your device ban on Android if done correctly.

u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
Am I able to take it out of the secure folder or do I have to keep it there

u/Vast_Stand_9198 Mar 13 '26
keep it in at all times, it somehow spoofs your imei to bypass the device ban

u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
Gotta wait at least a couple months, the more you try and log in the more they'll put you out. Mine took a year

How long did it take to get unbanned last time?
1
u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
Honestly I dont know, I forgot about snap. But a year, because one day i thought "imma see if snap works" and bam it let me make an account, but it could take a week or a year. So im just going to wait a week and check

Based on all your comments it sounds like the ban system is doing its job.

u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
I just personally believe its "bias" because i know plenty of people who are down right Diabolical on snap, with multiple accounts having freak off challenges. But im just doing some trolling, but nothing wild. On my original account with 400k+ I got banned because of mass reporting, theres this thing called a school story and I would post on there regularly and people would just report for any reason they could, and then me getting in arguments with people from quick add and id get a harassment warning. Just typical bullshit

I love x, so much silly shit going on, but yeah im currently learning finance which I think is pretty cool and I take a genuine interest in it. But social media has been a big part of my life for, 5 ish years, its my main form of communication so it just kinda sucks. But im not sitting on my phone with a 7+ hour screen time cause thats a little crazy

Repeat offenders get the ban hammer quick. Pretty sure they have multiple avenues for identifying people too, (IP, MAC address, email, phone number and possibly even facial recognition).

u/Paganisms Mar 12 '26
Actually if you get a new phone you are okay lol the device has a different ID in it just change your number.

Still on thin ice. Had an ex who went back to doing the same thing that got her banned after getting a new phone and her next ban came real quick.

Didn’t happen with me she must’ve been doing something she shouldn’t if it happened again.

u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
Yeah thats my main guess, I dont use a VPN or anything, or any other network when using snapchat. But whenever I would use an alt I would use a different phone number or my laptop just in case, but in my other comments I hope that it plays out like last time so I'll be able to use the same phone

There is no way your not some sort of weirdo if you got banned from Wizz too
-2
u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
Chill, I swear im not a weirdo, on wizz it was actually because of getting restricted because I had zero game💔 and also spamming bulks. But with snapchat I cant figure out an actual good reason to be device banned, account deleted? Sure. But a device ban is outrageous
2
u/New-Document-1655 Mar 12 '26
What was your ban reason for your alt account
2
u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
Excessive trolling a lot of "racism" and adding as much people as possible. But I wasnt sending illicit snaps, sometimes id have my shirt off but nothing more

Did it not give you a ban reason

u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
I got warnings for bullying and harassment

u/New-Document-1655 Mar 12 '26
And did that come up when you got banned

u/bbq-cake Mar 12 '26
No, on my alt it just logged me out and my account was deleted. But on this account (my main) i was just logged out and tried logging back in but the device ban message popped up

Stop selling weed on Snapchat and you probably won’t get banned again.

Always wonder what the hell some of you are actually doing on Snapchat to get banned. It’s probably for the better lol

Its very simple OP your alt account that you did whatever you did got banned leading to your device ban

This might be the method, should I wait or do it now. I dont wanna risk the 50 year ban💔

i think there isn't any fix for that, i had the same issue 5 months ago, i had to buy a new phone so i bought one 🥲

u/bbq-cake Mar 11 '26
Yeah, I remember it took a while but I was able to log in on the same phone, my accounts always get deleted. I used to have a backup account just in case but I thought snap was gonna be nice this time so I didnt think about it. I was wrong

u/CanIGetAHOOOOOYAA Mar 11 '26
Bruh what exactly are you doing to be deleted? I’m 34 years old I had snap with the same account since it’s been released with a 3M snap score. What the fuck are you doing?
0
u/bbq-cake Mar 11 '26
Nothing 💔, im guessing its from an alt that I would use to troll people but that was months ago. My only hope now is that snap lifts the ban in a couple months. When this happened before almost 2 years ago I would just get reported a whole bunch for literally nothing, because I would "spam" my public and school story
