Snapchat calls followers subscribers. Only public profiles have them: creators, brands and anyone who turned on a public profile. A normal account has friends instead, and nobody else can see how many.
The number on this page is the one Snapchat puts on the public profile at snapchat.com/add/username. Snapchat rounds it to the nearest 100 and updates it a few times a day, not live. So if a count sits still for hours, that is Snapchat, not this page.
Want a number that moves by the second? Spotlight views do: the live Spotlight view counter reads them from Snapchat every few seconds.
How often we check
We check any profile someone has open and the biggest accounts in the list every 5 minutes, and the rest of the list every 15 minutes, so a new number usually shows up here within minutes of Snapchat putting it on the public profile.
Each profile shows when we last checked it and when we last saw the number change. The "Changes we saw" chart keeps one value per day.
Put it on your stream or website
Open a profile and use Embed code for a small widget on a website, or OBS link for a browser source. Both pick up new numbers by themselves and never show ads.

Questions
How do I see how many subscribers someone has on Snapchat?
Type their username or paste their profile link in the search box at the top. If the account has a public profile, you get the number Snapchat publishes for it. Personal accounts have no public count.
Why does the count not change every second?
Snapchat publishes a new figure a few times a day, rounded to the nearest 100. A Snapchat counter that ticks up every second is estimating, not reading a real number.
Why does a public profile show no count?
Some public profiles do not show their subscriber count, and Snapchat then publishes it as zero. The page tells you when that is the case instead of showing a 0.
Is it free?
Yes, and there is no login. The ads on this page pay for the server. The embed and the OBS overlay never show ads.
