Now, simply tap once to view images on Snapchat

Remember the days when you had to press and hold your screen to view images and texts on Snapchat? Well, of course, you do – because until yesterday that’s how things worked at the self-destructing photo sharing app. Not anymore! Now, you can simply tap once to view images and stories shared by your friends on Snapchat.

“Simply Tap to View! This means no more tired thumbs while watching a several-hundred-second Story… and a little getting used to for anyone who has been Snapchatting for a while. We think you’re going to love it!,” Snapchat stated in its official blogpost.

Snapchat has also added a new feature called, Add Nearby, that will help you befriend new people who are around you at the moment.

“Add Nearby is (also) a quick way to add a group of friends when you’re all hanging out together. If everyone opens Add Nearby, a list of your friends will appear on the screen. Just tap to add,” the blogpost read.

To make it easier for you to add friends, the social networking app now lets you add a selfie to the center of your Snapcode, so that it’s easier for friends to recognize you when send them an add request. To add friends through Snapcode, all you have to do is, take a screenshot – and voila – they are added to your Snapchat friends list.
