At the end of June paid subscription services of Snapchat, called Snapchat+, was launched. Paid features of Snap allow its users the privileges to enjoy the under-testing and experimental features before other regular users. Moreover, Snap.Inc. announced a new feature arriving soon in August which will add more value to the premium services offered.
Snapchat+ To Add A New Feature With August Update
The new update is to release with many amazing features but it will mostly be about the cosmetics customizations and expressions. With this update, the premium users will first get access to ‘Priority Story Replies’. This feature will make your replies more noticeable to the receiver in case you are trying hard to get his or her attention towards yourself first. Now, moving towards the second feature pending arrival with the latest update is ‘Post View Emoji’. This feature will allow the plus users to replace the traditional blue tick arrow, which appears after a message is read, with other more creative emojis.
Conversations will become more enjoyable with the upcoming ‘Exclusive Bitmoji Backgrounds’. Users will be able to switch the background with beautiful bitmojis like ‘gleaming gold’ and a tropical beach setting. And lastly, Snap users can enjoy ‘Custom Snapchat Icons’, which means they can customize and design their own Snapchat icons.
Will Update Soon
For now, the users will have to wait for these updates, but they are highly likely to come in this month.
“The firm previously included cosmetic perks like new Snapchat icons and an exclusive Snapchat Plus badge. In addition, it allowed Plus subscribers to pin conversations and see who rewatched their story. Snap Inc. also later added the ability to access its service from the web. While you could chat, make calls, and share videos, you could not use its popular AR features”, mentioned XDA.
