so I use snapchat and recently since like almost a week ago it doesn't refresh the feed on WiFi. like it says I have a new snap, but when I open the app it doesn't show the new snap and just says could not refresh messages, please try again. but I turn on my data and it works right away, and it works on other people's WiFi, so like what's going on? how do I fix it?

thanks!

I've had this problem before too. Try restarting the app then refresh your messages

I've tried everything, wiped data, reinstalled, even tried a different phone (I had to use an old gnex for a week) but nothing works. I even tried removing and re adding my Google account but still nothing works :/

Is this a custom rom or stock rom? If it's a custom rom, I suggest you try flashing a different one to see if the problem persists

Then its probably your WiFi network? Is it your home network? I don't know much about WiFi except when I run into your problem it's on my school WiFi which has some sort of proxy or something

yeah I'm at home, it's only with my Wi-Fi. my friend who came over yesterday and also uses snapchat said it didn't refresh their feed either. I tried using a vpn on my phone to see if it works, and it did, so Idk what's going on with my Wi-Fi/ip/whatever :/

Try the usual reboot router, update firmware if possible. You could also try selecting 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz in your phone's advanced WiFi settings.

Any other networking devices on the network? And everything else works fine on your home WiFi except Snapchat?

i have this too :(

Hi guys. Im just wondering if any of you have a solution to this. I have the exact same problem. I actually reset my modem/router and snapchat worked for a couple minutes until it stopped again. Somethings is really weird.
Thanks for reply.

In my case, the snapchat stoped working after I downloaded an app called Savemysnaps. Apparently, snapchat now blocks my IP adress. I just installed an app Hotspot shield VPN and snapchat works again on my wifi

    Me too

    For the record, I am having this exact same problem. I have a Nexus 4 running an unrooted stock ROM.
