Snapchat was one of the very few social networks that did not offer a computer version. For example, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter have been on the web for many, many years. Snapchat has now taken the step of making their messaging available by logging on to web.snapchat.com. Snapchat+ subscribers will be able to send photos, messages and make video calls just like on the app.

In the press release, Snapchat highlights the video and voice calling feature in particular. Indeed, the company believes that this feature is "a new way to continue their conversations on their computers, where they already work, learn and surf". The web version will only be available on Chrome, which is the only compatible browser. For messages, as on the mobile application, users will be able to use the "reply" feature as well as reactions to messages.

Snapchat filters are not yet present on the mobile version but the Snapchat group assures that they will arrive very soon. The same goes for Stories, Discovers and mini-games, for the moment no information has been communicated above.
