Welcome to the futuristic Snapchat where there are new colors, more celebrities, and a bigger, better Discover page that you might actually use! Here are four key improvements that all Snapchat users need to know about the newest update:
1. Incoming snaps and chats are now the same color
Remember the good old days when a snap came in red in the bottom left-hand corner, chats came in blue, and videos were purple? That is now a past time in the world of Snapchat: all snaps will now appear blue.
2. Small Icons are Out and Big Picture Ads Are In
When you view your friends’ stories on Snapchat, Discover now greets you with a row of photo ads, rather than the small circular icons, that promote everything from the newest season of #OITNB to this year’s Stanley Cup champs.
3. Celeb News Now on the Discover Page
Swiping to Snapchat’s Discover page now means being able to see the latest from Hollywood favorites. Learn more about #Hiddleswift, Nick Jonas’s past break-ups, and more celeb news with this improved feature.
4. The Discover Page Added Lots of New Content
Snapchat revamped its Discover page by including larger ads, videos, and pictures. The new page will capture more viewers’ attention with intriguing stories and colorful visuals.
