Failed to upload Snapmatic photo error in Grand Theft Auto Online 

Last Updated: December 8, 2025

Question: What do I do about the following error code when trying to upload a Snapmatic photo in Grand Theft Auto Online?

  • Failed to save Snapmatic photo. Rockstar Games services are unavailable right now. Please try again later.

Answer: You can encounter this error if the Rockstar Games services supporting this feature are currently under maintenance or if you have recently uploaded a large number of Snapmatic photos.

You can check the Rockstar Games Service Status page for any service outages or maintenance.

If this is unrelated to a Rockstar Games maintenance or service alert, retry uploading your Snapmatic photo at a later time. Depending on the cause, it may take between 60 and 180 minutes before you can save Snapmatic photos again.
