New Instagram and Snapchat Features
Two of many people’s favorite social networking service are: Instagram and Snapchat. You’re able to share photos, videos, and can even share direct messages with your favorite followers. There is a variety of different celebrities that use Instagram on a regular basis. The Kardashians, the Jenners, Rihanna, Drake, and so many others of your favorites.
Direct message is a fun part of Instagram that people use. You can also create a group and share a hilarious video or picture you saw. The only thing is, the uploader’s page must be followed by everyone in the group chat, unless their page is public. Other than that, spill all the tea with your friends and family in the group chat.
Here’s a fun fact about Insta: Only PHOTOS were to be uploaded. Then, it was only photos and fifteen second videos. Good news! Now, sixty second videos can be uploaded on the gram. How exciting! Another thing about the videos, you can see how many people viewed it. Unfortunately, you can’t see exactly who has watched your video, therefore, those page stalkers out there can continue lurking. Rumor has it, the creators of Instagram do plan on updating the feature where users are told who watches their videos.
Hmm..what about Snapchat? Well, now you can’t see how long you’ll be watching someone’s story. Despite that, you can now send your friend fun stickers during your chat. You can also send videos to the chat instead of just pictures only. Not only that, but Snapchat also will allow you to unlock some locks that let you know of your accomplishments while to using the app.
One unlocked lock with say,”Sent a video using two filters!” You can compete with your favorite Snapchat buddy to see who’s the better Snapchatter. Also, as you chat with someone, there’s an emoji on the far right side of their name. That emoji determines what your relationship is on Snapchat. For example, if there’s a heart, that’s your #1 best friend on Snapchat!
