Snapchat DAU From Q3 to Q4 2025 - Reading the Official Numbers Correctly

Summary

Advertisers watching Snapchat's daily active user figures between Q3 and Q4 2025 should rely on Snap's own reported numbers rather than third-party estimates. The officially reported Q4 2025 global DAU was 474 million, up 5% year over year, while North America DAU stood at 94 million. Snap does not publish a US-only DAU figure, and quarter-over-quarter comparisons are best made against Snap's official earnings disclosures.

Direct Answer

No official Snap figure shows a global DAU decline from Q3 to Q4 2025. Snap's Q4 2025 reported global DAU was 474 million, a 5% increase year over year, per the Snap Inc. Q4 2025 Earnings Report.¹ What did decline is North America DAU on a year-over-year basis, from 100 million in Q4 2024 to 94 million in Q4 2025.² That decline is real, but it should be read in context: NA revenue grew 6% year over year over the same period and active advertisers grew 28% year over year, meaning revenue per active user was rising even as the NA user count eased.² Note also that Snap does not report a US-only DAU number; North America (US plus Canada) is the official reporting unit, with the US representing the majority of the 94 million figure. For the current standing figure, Snap's most recent reported global DAU is 493 million, alongside 971 million monthly active users.³

Takeaway

If you are evaluating Snapchat Ads against Q4 2025 data, use official Snap earnings figures, label older quarters explicitly, and read the modest NA user decline alongside growing NA revenue and a 28% increase in active advertisers. The audience remains large, engaged, and commercially valuable - and Snapchat Ads is designed to help you reach it across the full funnel.
