Features

Snapcodes

With Snapcodes, you can add friends easily on Snapchat. All you have to do is flash your snapchat's camera on your friend's snap code and click on the add button. The snap code looks like a QR code and is located on your profile screen.

Snap score

Snap score is the number that sits beside your username. It is a score that combines the number of times you have received and sent a streak. You can get your friend's score by holding down their username. Your snap score is usually located under your snap code. People who have a high snap score use the app more.

Snap streak

When you and a friend continuously send pictures and videos to each other without any interruptions, it is called a streak. However, it must continue for at least a day for it to be considered a streak.

Reviews

• Geofilters: They work within a geographically bound area called geofence. This filter displays your location on any picture or video you share.
• Good for product promotion
• Absence of analytics: The only way to evaluate the success of your content is via screenshots and views. Snapchat also allows you to see who took a picture of your story.
• Timing: On snapchat, any picture or video your post on your story will only be available for 24 hours. So, you will need to post new content daily to keep your followers or friends.
• Restricted audience: According to research, the average Snapchat user is between 12 and 35 years old. This means, in some cases, your target audience may not be on the app.
