Snapchat Introduces Map Explore Feature for Both Android and iOS Users

Snapchat has rolled out a new update called ‘Map Explore’ which will let users know about what is happening with their friends on their Snap map. The Snap map will show the updates by the user’s friends when their friends allow the app to access their location. Along with the ‘Our Story’ updates which the users usually do, the breaking news and other events which make their way to the top of Snapchat’s content will also be shown on the Snap map, depending on the location. This new feature might supposedly breathe life back onto the Snap platform by bringing an update which hasn’t been implemented on any other app before, especially after their latest update that merged the story and messaging section together, sadly it was the same update which the users didn’t like.

The Snap Map Explore is going to help users explore their friends’ stories and the content which they post while being in their proximity. You can also see what is happening elsewhere in the world on the Snapchat platform as the feature allows finding content and the navigation on Snap map fairly easy. The updates and stories start appearing automatically on the map once the user stars sharing their location.

Snapchat also added a statement while explaining the function of the new feature ‘(the updates are) inferred from the locations they open the app at.’ This means that if your friends have not opened the app since the last eight hours, the update will be gone form the Snap map. This ensures that Snapchat still keeps on walking on its mantra of more ‘real life’ communication.
