Snapchat Updates To Allow Users To Share Content From Publishing Partners, Zoom While Recording Videos
Snapchat is finally making its media content sharable. The app released an update recently which brings sharing capabilities of contents from Discover section to Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus and LinkedIN from the app.
Snapchat launched Discover few months ago that featured content from Vice, CNN, National Geographic and others however to share stories was not yet available.
The new features allows Snapchat users an additional way to engage with Discover.
"When browsing in Discover, you can now select an item to share by tapping and holding on an image, video or article. With text, the app will only capture a screenshot of the portion you're currently viewing, not the entire post," Mashable noted.
From there, you can add text or draw on images, just as you would with any other message in the app.
People receiving the message will see a link at the bottom that would say "Sent via Discover," directing them back to the original edition it was shared from.
The recent update also includes the ability to zoom while recording videos within Snapchat - Swipe right while recording to zoom in and left to zoom out.
