WUU2 meaning on Snapchat

On Snapchat, WUU2 stands for ‘What You Up To?’ It’s a casual and informal way of asking someone what they are doing at that moment. The versatile phrase can be used to initiate a conversation, show interest in someone’s activities, or simply keep a chat lively.

For example, if someone wants to start a conversation but doesn’t have a specific topic in mind, sending “WUU2?” can be an effective way to engage the other person.

Alternatively, if a user notices a friend posting an interesting or unusual snap, they might respond with “WUU2?” as a way to inquire more about the friend’s current activity or situation.

Although it often pops up on Snapchat, the term was not created on the platform, and you may see it used across a whole range of different social media apps including Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook, TikTok, and more.
