And that is to say; he or she searched your username using the SnapChat Search Box.

So Snapchat will always notify you once anyone added you by a search.

2. Through Snapchat Suggestions

You will no longer receive notifications from people you don’t know.

However, you may limit your profile to “friends only” if you want.
