Why does snapchat has access to my contacts even though I never gave permission? Even more so, why does snapchat show contacts that no longer exist on my phone? It's getting REALLY annoying as a now married man to get notifications like, "Jill (Tinder) Is on snapchat!" I don't care about Jill. She stood me up anyway and I deleted her number. Why must you remind me that she exists when I didn't give you the permission to see the people I DO talk to.
