Does Snapchat device ban iphones ?

So my question is simple
Does Snapchat device ban iphones or not as iphones don't share as much info with apps as android devices .

As in androids Snapchat device bans your device and then you can't log into any account or create a new account.

It's correct that iOS doesn't allow the transfer of sensitive device data (like at Android) so e. g. IMEI, MAC addresses, WiFi network names of your neighbors, serial numbers (UDID) etc.

But there is a special device token (generated with several factors). So if you really spam Snapchat they could limit your permissions (shadow ban) or ban your accounts you used with this device.

On the other hand there are ways to avoid this with iOS.

For example: TruthSocial also used a device token at iOS. But it was easy to intercept the device token creation, to be rebuild with a iOS API based bot solution, without a physical iPhone.

For Android this is correct. Even if you factory reset your Android phone, only the classic DeviceID will change, not the other values (IMEI, MAC, WiFi names, serial numbers, Google IDs etc.).


If you want to read more details about the details behind Snapchat accounts (Android vs. iOS) and the Snapchat account creation, please have a look at my journey thread: Snapchat Account Creator Bot - Reverse Engineering

Snapchat bans iOS devices, so use cheap Andriod devices for spam. Android devices don't ban, and factory reset settings for new device ID.

I'm sorry to correct this: But your answer is wrong, Snapchat blacklists and also bans Android phones. No matter how many times you factory reset them.

Even if you try to login with too many different accounts at the same Android phone, you will be locked out.

So using iPhones is the better way.

I code Snapchat bot solutions since 2021, I spend more than 80 hours per week with Snapchat coding since January 2024 (with a short break in March/April).

Did you try a factory reset of your iPhone?

How many accounts did you use at the same time? Did you use a jailbreak and/or crane?

I've tried like 3 factory reset, when I've reinstalled Snapchat, I couldn't create any account and only login to an old account

When I've logged out of that old account I was banned again lmao

And by factory reset I mean: A full factory reset, change of region/time, change of icloud account etc...

Hi. I think snapchat doesnt specifically ban iPhones, this platform has a device ban policy that applies to any device, including IP and Androids, that violates their terms of service.
The amount of information shared by a device with an app, whether it's an iPhone or Android, is not the primary factor in determining whether a device gets banned. Instead, it's the user's actions within the app that can lead to a ban, such as violating community guidelines, engaging in spam or malicious activities, or using unauthorized third-party apps.
