These days, it’s hard to imagine modern man’s life without using social networking sites. Social networks have managed to make it so that almost every other user starts their day by writing a post to let all their followers and friends know about the joy-grief. But the truth is, certain moments in our lives should not be shared outside of our personal space, and others are just as much asking to be shared. Today, let’s talk about the app, or rather the messenger Snapchat.
As previously mentioned Snapchat is one of the most famous and popular messengers among teenagers in the United States. It allows young people to share various types of content. The developers announced it 11 years ago, today it is supported on Android and Apple devices. It is worth noting that more than 5 million users access the app every day, while sending each other more than 150 million videos – and photo files.
Want to know right now why Snapchat is a unique application and what distinguishes it from popular Instagram or Rando? It’s very simple, all the photos and videos that have been taken by the user are deleted after a few seconds once and for all. That’s why you won’t see in the app the painfully familiar feed where you can see user activity.
The author of an image has the full right to personally decide how long his “creation” will be available for viewing on the messenger space. There is no opportunity to save previously posted content.
But there is a fairly concise design and pleasant interface. You will not be liked or commented on like in Insta. You simply share interesting files with your friends without putting them up for discussion to other people. And after a while, all the content you’ve posted disappears without a trace. It’s really cool!
