Can u have more than one phone number with a singular snapchat account? As n example, if I have 2 different #’s but want my account on both phones, will both phones, depending on which I have at the time, receive and share the same snaps from the same account?

Admin…I see several people cannot log in to snap chat because we need a verification code. If we cannot log in, then we cannot change the settings. I have a new phone number, and cannot change it in the settings because I cannot log in. Can we access settings online? Do we do this via email?
Hello Garret, that is makes sense, you can try to contact Snapchat Support on twitter @snapchatsupport to help you with this situation, they are very helpful, because for now, there is no web version of Snapchat to change the settings online.

Hello I am unable to change my account phone number. This number has been changed to a land line and I now have a new cellular number. I would like to change my snapchat number to my new cellular number but when I enter the new number it says it can’t be verified. WTF!? My email has been verified. And you can’t send a verification code to a landline so how does snapchat expect you to change your number? Pissed.
use the mobile number instead
