When you see a message that you are "using Snap Map on a different device," it could mean several things. Often, this happens if you are logged into your Snapchat account on multiple devices. Snap Map updates your location based on the device you are actively using Snapchat on, so if you're logged in elsewhere, your location might be shown from that device instead. You can choose which device's location is shown on the Snap Map by opening Snapchat on that device, ensuring location services are enabled, and accessing Snap Map to update the location. If you're not knowingly logged in on another device, this could also be a glitch or a security issue. In such cases, it is advisable to:

• Change your Snapchat password immediately.
• Enable two-factor authentication for added account security.
• Review the devices and sessions where your account is active, if possible.
• Check the location shown on Snap Map; if it does not match your actual location, this is a sign to be cautious.

Snapchat location sharing also requires explicit permission and can be turned off or set to "Ghost Mode" to hide your location. If you believe your account is compromised, contacting Snapchat support is recommended for account recovery and protection. In summary, the message about using Snap Map on a different device is usually a reflection of being logged in on multiple devices or a security alert. Taking steps to secure your account and control location sharing settings will help manage this situation safely.
