So what exactly is Snapchat?

Snapchat is ...
A video messaging applica0on created by three Stanford University students: Evan
Spiegel, Bobby Murphy, and Reggie Brown.
Users can take photos, record videos, add text and drawings, and send them to a controlled list of recipients through this
applica0on.
The unique thing about Snapchat is that photos and videos only last briefly before they disappear forever, making the app
ephemeral in nature, though users can take a screenshot to save snaps but the sender will
be no0fied when snapshots are taken.

Process... Experts have said that Snapchat is so simple that it can be confusing! The en0re process of making a snap can be done within the app itself.
One can literally take a photo or video, add text, filter images, or can even sketch on the message.
Tap the large camera buJon to take a snap or hold down to record a video on the main screen.
Once you’re finished, a
preview screen will appear with
op0ons for customizing,
adjus0ng length, sending the
Snap, and more.
The sender can set the 0me limit and also
choose as many contacts as he or she wants to
send the post to.
The receiver can view the post only twice
before it gets deleted but he or she can take a snapshot of it.
