All the news from Snapchat
There are three novelties that it has introduced Snapchat with its latest update; a trio of characteristics with which the platform tries to distinguish itself from the competition that, in recent times, and in the absence of original ideas, has been dedicated to copying its functions in an almost insulting way. Read Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and even WhatsApp, all of them under the leadership of Mark Zuckerberg's company, who once tried, unsuccessfully, to buy Snapchat.
The first novelty is called paper clips and it is nothing other than the possibility of send all kinds of external links, something that was previously very limited, so the novelty, more than its arrival, is its expansion. And to avoid problems, the company praises its security by applying its own security tools and the use of Google's safe browsing service. Thus, users will be warned of inappropriate websites, malware or possible scams. Press the clip icon and send your hyperlinks, while at the bottom of the screen you will see the ones you receive; click on them and you can access.
Very peculiar are the voice filters that will allow users to change their voice independently of visual filters when sending videos. Press the speaker icon and access the filters.
Finally, the backdrops, or possibility to change the background in which you appear. Just press the scissors icon, "cut out" your silhouette in the foreground, and apply the background that you want.
