Following Snapchat's big update in March, the social app has seen another update that adds a brilliant new face swap feature and the ability to replay any snap once for free. Here's how to use the new features, as well as Snapchat Chat 2.0, lenses, filters, stories and more.
How to use new Snapchat Daily lenses: How to use Snapchat lenses
Lenses are one of the most popular features of Snapchat - after the ability to send videos/photos that expire after 10 seconds, of course. It seems that Snapchat has also noticed this, with the photo-sharing giants offering the ability for its customers to buy (with real life money) lenses to be used at any time. The firm has since scrapped the idea of selling Lenses, and to stop the feature becoming stagnated, has introduced a new system. Instead of offering the same range of lenses on a day-to-day basis, the selection is updated daily, removing the oldest Snapchat lens and replacing it with a brand new one. Don't worry, though - if you did buy any lenses, these will still be permanently available to you.
One of the most confusing things to new Snapchat users is how to access these lenses. Turn the camera so your face is on the phone's screen as if you were to take a selfie, then tap and hold on your face until a mesh appears. Now release. Snapchat will load several lenses to the side of the capture button, which you can slide through to access. Many will require you to open your mouth to get the full effect - you'll feel (and probably look) silly doing so in public, but at least you now understand why the kids are pulling such strange faces.
