Snapchat Memories - Save and search for snaps on Snapchat

@jackdweck And your go-to photo album app eventually.

@jackdweck It'll be my go-to camera when iOS lets other camera apps be on the lock screen. Which I assume is why iOS doesn't let other camera apps be on the lock screen :-\

@jackdweck too bad it saves at a lower resolution than the built-in camera tho

@chuckkahn @jackdweck also, no HDR

@staringispolite but then you can't share them with your Snapchat friendz! The inability to import photos/videos into Snapchat stories is part of its genius. cc @jackdweck

@rrhoover @jgcatalano Ok true, and yes it will be more addictive, but the whole idea of ephemerality was the reason people jumped on the platform. Skipping that core value, can also open the door for new platforms.

@rrhoover @jgcatalano I'm looking forward to showing my parents my 'bikini butt' accidentally. 😏

@nivo0o0 And, here's the engine that powers the Snapchat backend

@jgcatalano In a sense, that content is their only value. In fact, you can reduce most companies to robust databases with unique content. Google = URLs. Insta = pictures. Indeed = Job postings.

@dleesta Almost definitely 😂

@immatthamlin It's risky, Snapchat content is usually raw and so it's easy to share because users are not expected to keep level with pre-produced content. Now that publishers will be able to enhance their pictures and videos, the average joe could feel more embarrassed to share. I could be entirely wrong when the ease of sharing on Snapchat could be very well attributed to the fact that there's no score, such as likes, to compare oneself to others.

I totally agree, one of the reasons that I share more on Snap (compared to instagram/twitter/facebook) is because its 95-99% spur of the moment photos or videos which feel 10x easier to share with a close group of friends.
