Snapchat is a messaging application suitable for photo chatting and even video chatting.
The creators were based on the idea that emoticons could not fully convey the user's emotion. There's also the option to share a funny photo or something you're embarrassed to post on social media because it'll stay there forever, which is why you choose the limited lifetime.
First after downloading the application you will need to make your personal account, you can link it with your account on Facebook or create a new one with your email and a password. You then choose the nickname you want and put in your phone number as a confirmation code will be sent to you to activate your account.
When you open the application opens directly and the camera to take out selfie or if you do not have an internal camera or external, switchable both. Above you will see the little ghost, from where you will be able to manage your contacts. You will be asked to allow access to your contact list so that you find which friends have a Snapchat account. You can find your friends either from your phone contacts or if you know their nickname.
After last update της εφαρμογής που έγινε την προηγούμενη εβδteam, you can take a photo through the application the screenshot below and directly add this user to your contacts. Not knowing his phone number or nickname. (A possible scenario at a party or club with loud music...)
After analyzing the basics of creating an account and finding our friends, we go to see the Snapchat features. You can send picture and video photos. Photos last from 2 to 10 seconds before they are self-destructing. Text messages have no disaster time, but after reading and replying or exiting the application they disappear in turn. To view the photo, you must press and hold your finger on the screen. But be careful, because if you do not press and hold the screen, the picture does not appear, but the time keeps counting and you may lose some image, I have pressed it this way! To read text messages simply slide your finger to the right and answer twice with the screen.
In the bottom left you can see the history of your conversations, as well as the current news of your friends. While on the right you can see so-called stories. There you can post photos in your public profile, that is, they will be visible to everyone even if they are not your friends.
Their life span is up to 24 hours. This way you can create your own story. You can add more than one photo, if someone does not see a picture you do not miss, time is added and you can see them captured.
For example, in 30 seconds to see 3 different photos.
Snapchat: The new Discover feature came to shake the waters!
After the last update of the application, the Discover function was added. You can find this function by swiping twice to the left. There you will find stories from different editorial teams. It is the result of a partnership with world-class media leaders such as CNN, MTV, Daily Mail, National Geographic with the aim of creating a form of storytelling of everyday youth through videos and photographs.
The application hopes to challenge the viral logic, ie it does not show that it has a great impact on social media, with many shares, or that it is more recent or more popular. They are based on columnists, publishers, and artists to determine what is important to show.
Updates are refreshed every day, because what's news today is tomorrow's story ... Stories are at the heart of it and in just a few minutes you can get to know what's happening in the world easily, quickly, "lightly" with videos and photos as opposed to the endless tedious texts and articles on news sites.
The app can be used by cunning people to sext and send naked photos on the grounds that they will be deleted afterwards, but I can intercede on your smartphone with a screenshot. Then Snapchat will send you a message to let you know. Ways to steal there are many or a third application like Spysnap or pull the screen of mobile photo with another cell phone. So I advise you to use it wisely.
Many young people especially abroad use the Snapchat application for their main communication with their friends, with photos or text messages. Two years ago creators turned down Facebook's $3 billion buyout offer, which I was against. Post the last update and its addition operation Discover which impressed me, I'm revising my original assumption and thinking maybe they weren't wrong after all?
I use it daily Snapchat to get in touch with my friends and the Discover feature I loved, I find it quite handy and fun!
