If you’re like me: new to Snapchat, and really out of place in the Gen-Z and Gen Alpha world of texting and slangs, you might think that OTP simply means One Time Password. But no, if someone has sent you a message asking you for your OTP on Snapchat, they’re not trying to hack you; they’re probably asking your thoughts about a fandom. Here’s what you should know about OTP meaning on Snapchat.
OTP Meaning in Snap: One True Pairing
More often than not, OTP is used to say “one true pairing”. Usually a term for your favorite pairing from a fictional fandom. You know, like what’s your Harry Potter OTP? Or what’s your Hunger Games OTP? You get the idea.
OTP Meaning: On the Phone
OTP can have another meaning on Snapchat. It can be used to say “on the phone”. This is mostly used in casual conversations, or if you’re asking your Snapchat Best Friend why they’re not replying to your Snap. They might respond with “OTP”.
In this case, they’re clearly not asking you to tell them what you think your one true pairing is from a fandom you both admire. It’s more probable that they’re simply telling you that they’re on the phone with someone and will reply back soon.
Well, that’s what OTP means on Snapchat. Hopefully, you’re now able to make sense of the message that first brought you to this article, and if it did, let us know in the comments.
