This is the new look of Discover on Snapchat
Snapchat is updated to improve its section Discover That section that seems not to fit entirely with the philosophy and purpose of this ephemeral messaging application, but that it continues to be its economic engine thanks to the stories that are distributed through said channel. Well, now looks more visible, more comfortable to use and with a subscription system useful both for end users and for the publications that are developing their content.This is the new version of Discover on Snapchat:
The update, now available for both Android and iOS , has an important change in appearance in the section Discover That is, in the screen that appears when you slide your finger from right to left when starting Snapchat Something that already attracts attention from the first start thanks to the new icon dedicated to this section, which are now three circles in the lower right corner of the main screen of this application.
In this new version of Discover, the circles of the different publications that previously showed only their names become quadrangular and larger.Far from being a mere tweak of style, enjoying more space allows to display the latest story published on each channel A background image and a small text help to know this information, which may thus be able to call the user's attention so that they click and access to the same. Once inside each channel, the content continues to be displayed as usual, offering short videos and articles designed especially for Snapchat
Another novelty that directly affects the section Discover is the new possibility to subscribe to the different channels This allows not to miss any new story available on the favorite channels in this section. All you have to do is consult one of his articles and slide your finger from bottom to top to subscribe, or perform a long press on the icon of any of the channels.With this, the latest stories are placed at the end of the stories of Snapchat friends, being able to jump and see this content always updated when there are new articles or publications available .
Lastly, it is worth mentioning the novelty of the icons on the main screen of Snapchat, where the user can already take their snaps. And, as we said before, both the Discover section and the messaging section now have more recognizable icons The three circles to represent the stories on the right side, and the chat bubble on the left side.
In short, an update that tries to draw users' attention to the section Discover And it seems that does not finish taking offEspecially if we take into account that in markets like Spain the contents are not adapted or translated A content that still does not fit into this messaging application, but that now counts on subscriptions so that posts can better calculate the number of followers.
In any case, the new update of Snapchat with all these new features is now available at Google Play Store and App Store for free.
