If Snapchat wasn't already your go-to camera app, it will be now.

@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 :-\

@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 @jackdweck True but (1) I can't share with friends if I miss capturing the memory entirely. Right now, I have to unlock my phone, maybe close another app, wait for Snapchat to finish loading, and hope the moment hasn't passed. I've missed moments because of this as recently as our trip to MoMa this weekend
(2) I can still add photos to 1-1 snap chat chats
(3) I have exactly zero friends on snapchat that I don't also have elsewhere

@jackdweck sadly Snapchat takes a still frame of a video vs an actual photo. The resulting quality is much, much lower than photos from the camera app. They probably have a good reason for doing it this way, but not sure what that is... Whatever the reason this makes Snapchat a poor choice for a default camera.
