The picture - and video - messaging app Snapchat is unlike any other social network you probably use. Unlike Facebook or Twitter, Instagram , launching Snapchat brings you to a minimalist camera screen with a few icons tucked away filter in the corners - there are no feeds or menus to greet or guide you here. Many features are hidden behind mysterious taps and swipes, leaving it up to you to figure out how to find them.these tricks will help you polish your snaps and more.
Draw with more colors
Tapping the pencil icon in the upper right corner of the screen launches a color slider, allowing you to choose different shades for doodling over a Snap-chat. But what's less clear is that it's also possible to draw with colors not shown on this slider.
Add more than one filter to a snap
Torn between two filters? Add them both. First, swipe from left to right to apply one filter. Then, while holding your finger down on the screen, slide another finger from left to right again to add a second filter.
If you chose a color effect for your first filter, such as one that makes your photo appear black and white, you'll be able to choose from the available banner overlays for your second filter, such as those that see the time or weather.
Build story playlistsSometimes you might not want to watch all of the stories ur friends have recently posted. If u want to view just a few of your friends' stories back-to-back, tap the round thumbnail next to his or her name. This will turn their photo into a purple circle with a white checkmark, indicating that it's been added to your playlist. When you're done, tap the purple play button on the bottom of the screen to see the playlist.
Use night camera mode
Trying to capture a snap in a dark environment, such as in a dimly lit bar, can be challenging. To address this, Snapchat includes a night mode option. When using the app in a poorly lit area, a half moon icon will appear in the upper right corner of the screen. If it's not appearing when you want to use it, try covering your phone's camera with your hand to trigger it.
