What is Snapchat
Snapchat is a mobile app that works on devices with Android and iOS. The app is often called “Snap” by people who use it. The company that makes Snapchat is also called Snap, which is confusing. The business says that it makes cameras. As such, it makes other goods, like the Snapchat Spectacles, which are hardware. No matter what you call it, Evan Spiegel, who helped start Snap, is in charge.
One of the main ideas behind the mobile app is that the person you send a picture, video, or message (called a “snap”) to can only see it for a short time before it disappears. The app was made to be temporary or “ephemeral” so that people would connect with it in a more natural way. If you can download this app, than you can visit on Google Play Store.
