For users who are trying to get rid of the conversation, this is a godsend. However, for others who rely on My AI, it becomes an issue. 

To help out, we’ve decided to make a guide on how to fix My AI if it’s not working on Snapchat.

Let’s dive right in!

1. Restart Your Device. 

It’s always a good idea to restart your device when something isn’t working.

  1. Locate the Power button on your Android device. 
  2. Now, press and hold it until the selection menu appears.

Try using Snapchat again to check if My AI works. 

2. Check Snapchat Servers. 

Being an online app, Snapchat relies on its servers to deliver content and features. If you are having trouble using My AI, there’s a chance that the servers are offline. 

To confirm this, you can use third-party tools like Downdetector. This tool shows reported problems with Snapchat and its current status.
