Snapchat 作为一种与人们进行社交的方式变得流行起来，而无需留下永久的信息痕迹，也没有社交媒体的公共方面。但是，如果您愿意，您现在可以创建一个公开的个人资料，让其他人可以通过搜索找到您。我们将解释什么是公开资料以及如何在Snapchat 应用(Snapchat app)中创建它。
什么是Snapchat上的公开资料(Public Profile)？
使用Snapchat(Snapchat)的传统方式是邀请几个亲密的朋友，然后只与这些朋友分享文本和多媒体内容(text and multimedia content)。
然而，Instagram等社交媒体平台为内容创作者提供了与粉丝建立联系、展示他们的创造力以及使用 Snapchat 的Lens Studio等工具分享内容的机会。
Snapchat公共档案是一项新功能，可让 Snapchat 更轻松地找到您。您还可以在其他平台上分享您的公开个人资料，创建一个人们可以在Snapchat上查看您的内容并取得联系的地方。
公共帐户最重要的功能是拥有单独的订阅者和朋友列表。您可以将内容发送给您的公共订阅者，同时与您的朋友进行更亲密的互动。但是，与Twitter(Twitter)不同，当新订阅者加入时您不会收到通知。
公开资料的标题功能是展示镜头和故事(Stories)等内容。您可以将您独特的内容放在首位和中心位置(front and center)，以便其他Snapchat用户可以通过您的工作发现您。
公开 Snapchat 个人资料(Public Snapchat Profile)的资格要求
当Snapchat首次公布公开资料时，只有经过验证的创作者才能创建公开资料。随着对这个初始组的测试结束，该公司已经向所有Snapchat用户开放了公共个人资料，只要他们遵守一些要求：
- 用户必须年满 18 岁。
- 您的帐户必须超过 24 小时。
- 您至少需要一位接受您的好友请求(friend request)的好友。
- 您必须遵守社区准则。
遵守社区准则
公共个人资料适用于想要宣传其内容（例如音乐艺术）的人。
丢失您的公开个人资料的最快方法是违反您社区的准则。Snapchat的社区指南(community guidelines)并不长，因此我们鼓励所有考虑公开个人资料的人仔细阅读并熟悉平台上可接受的行为。一般来说，Snapchat 禁止：
- 明确的内容。
- 骚扰和欺凌。
- 威胁、暴力和伤害。
- 欺诈(Fraud)、欺骗、冒充和传播虚假信息。
- 任何非法内容。
- 仇恨言论。
换句话说，要友善并保持清洁。
公开与公开个人资料
在您的Snapchat设置中，在“谁可以”下，您可以将“联系我”和“查看我的故事”等部分设置为“所有人”，这意味着知道您用户名的任何人都可以搜索并查看您的内容。
虽然这听起来像是有一个公开的个人资料，但它是完全不同的。假设(Suppose)您将联系人设置设置为“所有人(Everyone)”，用户仍然需要知道您的用户名，即使他们不必成为您在Snapchat上的朋友。您也不会访问公开个人资料的特殊工具和功能。
虽然您可以打开您的Snapchat 帐户(Snapchat account)并将您的用户名发布在人们可以找到的地方，但这是一个不太优雅的解决方案。这意味着您可能必须将更适合成为订阅者的人添加到您的朋友列表中。
“在快速添加中查看我”选项与公开个人资料不同。这意味着您可能已经认识的人可以在“快速添加”部分(Quick Add section)看到您。
在Snapchat上创建公共个人资料(Public Profile)
在Snapchat(Snapchat)中创建公开个人资料既快捷又简单：
- 打开Snapchat。
- 从屏幕左上角的相机屏幕(camera screen)中选择您的Bitmoji（个人资料图标）或点击您的故事图标(Story Icon)。
- 向下滚动并在Spotlight & Snap Map 部分(Spotlight & Snap Map section)下查找Public Profile(Public Profile section)部分。
- 选择创建公共配置文件(Create Public Profile)。
按照说明创建您喜欢的公开个人资料。
如果您想稍后编辑您的个人资料：
- 选择您的Bitmoji或故事图标(Story icon)。
- 选择您的公开资料卡(Public Profile Card)。
- 选择编辑配置文件(Edit Profile)。
更改(Make)您的个人资料，这将在完成后立即反映出来。
注意：我们在(Note:)Android 设备(Android device)上 查找公共配置文件创建部分(public profile creation section)时遇到问题。尽管我们的帐户符合资格要求，但该设置仍不可用。在 iOS 上登录Snapchat 应用程序(Snapchat app)解决了这个问题。
我们找不到任何信息来解释此问题，但如果您知道自己应该符合条件，但仍找不到您的公开个人资料创建按钮，请与 Snapchat 的支持人员联系。(creation button)
了解您的公开资料
由于公开个人资料的目的是让人们看到并展示您的内容和品牌(content and brand)，因此填写您的个人资料以涵盖所有基础是个好主意。
点击您的Bitmoji并选择“我的公开个人资料(My Public Profile)”后，您可以选择编辑个人资料并填写(profile and fill)访问者在找到您时将看到的详细信息。
在屏幕顶部，您可以上传个人资料照片(profile photo)，该照片与您的Bitmoji分开，类似于Facebook 或 Twitter 上(Facebook or Twitter)的个人资料照片。
在个人资料图片下方，您会看到“预览个人资料”按钮(Preview Profile button)，您可以通过该按钮查看您的公开个人资料在其他 Snapchatter 中的样子，并像其他人看到的那样突出显示订阅按钮。
您的个人资料信息部分(information section)为您提供了 150 个字符的简短“您的全部内容”描述。
有一个部分可以填写您的位置信息(location information)，但请注意您的隐私。
此页面上的最后一个选项是公开个人资料功能(profile feature)，可让您的订阅者数量(subscriber count)可见或不可见。
您的页面上还有更多公开个人资料选项。只需(Simply)选择屏幕右上角的齿轮图标，您就会看到一个包含两个主要部分的设置页面。(gear icon)
在Public Profile Management下，您可以访问我们刚刚查看的同一Edit Profile 页面。(Edit Profile page)在将故事保存到您的个人资料(Save a Story to Your Profile)下，您可以轻松访问您的快照或相机胶卷(Snaps or camera roll)并创建公共故事。
分享个人资料部分(Share Profile section)特别有趣，因为这是在其他平台或私人消息中分享您的个人资料 URL 的最快和最简单的方法。(Profile URL)

What Is a Public Profile on Snapchat and How To Make One?
Snapchat became popular as a way to socialize with people without leaving a permanent trail of information and without the public aspect of social media. However, if you choose, you can now make a public profile that makes it possible for other people to find you using a search. We’ll explain what a public profile is and how to create it in the Snapchat app.
What Is a Public Profile on Snapchat?
The traditional way to use Snapchat is by inviting a few close friends and then sharing text and multimedia content with only those friends.
However, social media platforms such as Instagram give content creators a chance to connect with their fans, show off their creativity, and share content using tools such as Snapchat’s Lens Studio.
A Snapchat public profile is a new feature that enables snapchatters to find you more easily. You can also share your public profile on other platforms, creating a place where people can see your content on Snapchat and get in touch.
The most important feature of a public account is having a separate list of subscribers and friends. You can send content to your public subscribers while having more intimate interactions with your friends. However, you don’t get notifications when new subscribers join, unlike Twitter.
The headline feature of a public profile is showcasing content such as Lenses and Stories. You can put your unique content front and center so that other Snapchat users can discover you through your work.
Eligibility Requirements for a Public Snapchat Profile
When Snapchat first announced public profiles, only verified creators could create public profiles. As testing with this initial group came to an end, the company has opened public profiles up to all Snapchat users, as long as they comply with a few requirements:
- Users must be at least 18 years old.
- Your account must be older than 24 hours.
- You need at least one friend who has accepted your friend request.
- You must adhere to the community guidelines.
Sticking to Community Guidelines
Public profiles are for people who want to promote their content, such as the art of music.
The fastest way to lose your public profile is to violate your community’s guidelines. Snapchat’s community guidelines aren’t a long read, so we encourage everyone considering a public profile to read them carefully and become familiar with acceptable conduct on the platform. In general, Snapchat prohibits:
- Explicit content.
- Harassment and bullying.
- Threats, violence, and harm.
- Fraud, deception, impersonation, and spreading false information.
- Any illegal content.
- Hate speech.
In other words, be nice and keep it clean.
Going Public vs. a Public Profile
In your Snapchat settings, under “Who can,” you can set sections such as “Contact Me” and “View My Story” as “Everyone,” which means that anyone who knows your user name can search for it and see your content.
While this might sound like having a public profile, it’s pretty different. Suppose you set your contact settings to “Everyone,” users still need to know your username, even if they don’t have to be your friend on Snapchat. You also won’t access a public profile’s special tools and functions.
While you can open up your Snapchat account and post your username somewhere people can find it, it’s a much less elegant solution. It means you may have to add people to your friends’ list who may be better suited to being subscribers.
The “See me in Quick Add” option differs from a public profile. It means that people who you may already know can see you in the Quick Add section.
Creating a Public Profile on Snapchat
Creating a public profile in Snapchat is quick and easy:
- Open Snapchat.
- Select your Bitmoji (profile icon) from the camera screen on the top left of the screen or tap on your Story Icon.
- Scroll down and look for the Public Profile section under the Spotlight & Snap Map section.
- Select Create Public Profile.
Follow the instructions and create the public profile to your liking.
If you want to edit your profile later:
- Select your Bitmoji or Story icon.
- Select your Public Profile Card.
- Select Edit Profile.
Make changes to your profile, which will immediately reflect upon completion.
Note: We had a problem finding the public profile creation section on our Android device. Despite our account meeting the eligibility requirements, the setting was unavailable. Logging in to the Snapchat app on iOS solved the issue.
We could not find any information to explain this problem, but if you can’t find your public profile creation button despite knowing that you should be eligible, get in touch with Snapchat’s support.
Getting to Know Your Public Profile
Since the purpose of a public profile is to be seen and showcase your content and brand, it’s a good idea to have all bases covered by filling out your profile.
After tapping on your Bitmoji and selecting “My Public Profile,” you can choose to edit the profile and fill in the details that visitors will see when they find you.
At the top of the screen, you can upload a profile photo, which is separate from your Bitmoji and is akin to a profile picture on Facebook or Twitter.
Below the profile picture, you’ll see the Preview Profile button, which allows you to see what your public profile looks like to other snapchatters and highlights the subscribe button as others would see it.
Your profile information section gives you 150 characters for a brief “what you’re all about” description.
There’s a section to fill in your location information, but be mindful of your privacy.
The last option on this page is a public profile feature to make your subscriber count visible or invisible.
There are even more public profile options on your page. Simply select the gear icon in the top-right corner of the screen, and you’ll see a settings page with two main sections.
Under Public Profile Management, you can access the same Edit Profile page we just reviewed. Under Save a Story to Your Profile, you can easily access your Snaps or camera roll and create public stories.
The Share Profile section is of particular interest since this is the fastest and easiest way to share your Profile URL on other platforms or in private messages.
Getting Help and Information
The second section in the Profile Settings is called Access Support. Here you can use the Learn More section to access an FAQ and submit a support ticket if you need it.
Deleting Your Public Profile
If you decide that a public profile on Snapchat isn’t for you, it’s not hard to delete the profile. Note that this deletion is permanent and irreversible.
To delete your public profile:
- From the camera screen, open Snapchat.
- Select your Bitmoji.
- Scroll down to Public Profiles.
- Select your public profile.
- Select the gear icon at the top right of the screen.
- Select Delete Public Profile and then confirm after reading the warning.
If you want to create a new public profile in the future, you may. However, you won’t recover whatever subscriber count you had before. So be sure you really want to do it!
