Snapchat features like snapping, chatting, and video calling are coming to desktop through a new web app, marking the first time the company has made its service available beyond smartphones. <\/p>\n

With Snapchat for Web, you can log in with your Snapchat account and send private messages or call friends on desktop. Initially, the web platform will be available exclusively to Snapchat Plus subscribers, and it\u2019s the first major feature launch since Snap announced its paid tier<\/a> in June. Subscribers in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand will get access first. Snapchat will only be compatible with Google\u2019s Chrome browser and not Apple\u2019s Safari.<\/p>\n

Though Snapchat was created as a visual-first messaging app, its head of messaging product, Nathan Boyd, says a web offering makes sense because its users are using desktop computers more frequently. Snapchat for Web gives users extra space to chat and call in the same window, with Snap\u2019s AR Lenses coming soon. With people using computers more during the pandemic \u2014 and the new school year around the corner \u2014 Boyd said Snap wants to bring more of its products to web over time.<\/p>\n

Yes, Snapchat for Web still opens to your (webcam) camera. You can also edit your Bitmoji from the web.<\/em><\/figcaption>Image: Snap<\/cite><\/p>\n
