Fake Snapchat Chat Generator
Create a Snapchat-style chat: uppercase “ME” and friend labels, coloured lines beside each run of messages, and round call buttons in the header.
Snapchat's chat looks nothing like a typical messenger. Instead of bubbles, each burst of messages sits under a coloured label — red for you, blue (or your friend's colour) for them — with a thin line running down the left. It's a format younger audiences recognise immediately, which makes it useful for teen drama series, school-set skits and relatable comedy.

Tips for a more convincing Snapchat mockup
- Snapchat messages are informal — lowercase and abbreviations feel right here.
- Keep runs short: two or three messages per person before switching.
- Use a big emoji sticker for a reaction moment.
- Pick a friend colour with good contrast against white, like a saturated blue or purple.
- Pair this with the Lock Screen generator for a “new Snap from…” notification shot.
