Tap on “Apps & Notifications”.
Tap on “See all apps” option
Here in the list of applications, look for Snapchat and tap on it.
Now tap on the storage icon.
Then tap on Clear Cache and then Clear Data.
After that, open the app again. Y0u will have to enter your login credentials and log in again.
The check if the same error shows up again when you try to send a message to that account back.

Log out and Reinstall Snapchat:

Sometimes when all else fails, you can try reinstalling the application all over again.

Open on the Snapchat app and then click on the profile icon in the top left corner.
Then tap on the gear icon in the top right corner and it will take you to Snapchat’s settings page.

Now open Settings on your phone.
Tap on “Apps & Notifications”.
Tap on “See all apps” option
Here in the list of applications, look for Snapchat and tap on it.

You will see the install button right next to the application. Tap on it and wait till the installation is complete.

Once the reinstallation is done, try opening the app again and then log in to your account again. Check and see if the error shows up again when you send a message.

If none of these fixes works out for you, then it is probably a network issue. In that case, you should try switching to a different connection with better speed and connectivity.
