SnapChat takes on Facebook, WhatsApp with video and chat features

With SnapChat's new feature if a friend detects you have the app open, they can launch a video chat so that the video of them instantly appears on your screen. If you and your friend are both online simply press and hold to share live video — and Chat face-to-face. Recent figures are showing that teenagers particularly are turning away from other social media and towards chat services. The number of teenagers using SnapChat grew by 60 per cent in the final quarter of last year, the report says.

The new features of SnapChat will be made available to its users in an update to the app. Click Here for video and article.
