What is SnapChat
The application is filled with many features. There is this attractive feature in the mobile
application. The user could only send photos and videos to those fiends who are also in the
application’s server. So how is it possible for someone to find out whom among the friend
list is using the application? So the application when gets installed automatically syncs with
the contacts and it automatically detects who are using the application. It not only syncs with
phone contacts but facebook friends can also be synced in the application. The facebook
friends of the user get merged with the friends of the application and the user can send
picture messages to facebook friends too.
The application helps the user to take screenshots and send to their friends. According to the
developers just texting takes all the fun out of the communication. Pictures always convey
better messages. There is this disappearing message feature that is unique and only is given
to the application users. The user can send a picture to any friend from the contacts and
determine the time till when it will be visible. As for example let Andy send a picture to Max
in the application using this disappearing message feature. Andy set the visible time to 10
seconds. After the recipient opens the picture it will be visible to the recipient for only 10
seconds.
