SNAPCHAT

Snapchat is a photo sharing app in an already over crowded messenger app market. But, Snapchat had a trick up its sleeve that would distinguish it from the rest and make it an instantaneous hit among teens. Snapchat lets you send photos and videos called snaps, that can be viewed only once and then self destruct after some time.

Snapchat is growing at a tremendous pace, even overtaking Facebook in the process to be become the top photo sharing platform. Currently, over 400 millions photos are shared on Snapchat everyday.

Features Verdict

• The design of Snapchat can be termed silly at best.
• After logging is a screen which lets you take photos and videos.
• Photos can be taken by clicking on the large circular button on the bottom of the screen and videos can be taken by holding the same button.
• The square button on the left of the circular button takes you to the feed or you can simply swipe from left to right to access that screen.
• The other button on the right of the circular button ( or swipe from right to left) takes you to your ‘My Friends’ screen.
• It has introduced various additional features like Snapchat Stories, replay, smart filters, visual filters, special text and front-facing flash.
• By adding a snap to your story, the snap can be viewed unlimited times over 24 hours. You can choose who gets to view your stories by adjusting the settings.

Verdict

It is a way too much fun than any other messenger app which shares pictures with caption included in them. For someone who is constantly wanting to share their moment with a friend or a group of friends, this app fits perfectly in their pocket.
