Earlier this month, TechCrunch announced the Snapchat search improvements , now it is finally in the App Store under Snapchat 10.0
It's no news that Snapchat has had a discovery issue, what do people think at first glance of the new set up?
Initial reaction is that the bitmoji avatar + name may confuse me if I have lots of contacts on Snapchat.
Also still no way to discover people my friends follow or like? Or just trending people/popular people? I would've thought this would be a focus to compete with Instagram
One thing I LOVE is how much quicker the app is to open onto the camera!! (may just be my new phone?)

@bentossell Looks really good. I love that they improved the search capabilities. Also, I really like that they integrated bitmoji even further inside the app. P.s All the animations between the views are ❤️

@bentossell I'm pretty much obsessed with Bitmoji (I credit @jacqvon with getting me hooked a while back) so I'm super pumped that people see that when they see my name in their contacts list on Snap.
As for the discovery issue, I completely agree. That's something that Snapchat still has yet to crack. If I want to follow a bunch of celebrity snap stories, don't make me Google their usernames! Just recommend them to me. 💁

@katesegrin @bentossell Until they fix their discovery issue, there's still Snapdex (https://www.producthunt.com/post...) which I made to fill the gap :-)

@bentossell the camera does seem to start up a little bit faster. still my #1 complaint, it used to be instant.

@bentossell Really love the new look. It's a very smooth experience. They've added complexity, without confusion.
