A new update is rolling out to Snapchat for Android today, bringing the photo and video sharing app up to version 9.14. This new update focuses on saving users’ precious mobile data, as well as giving folks a way to use more emoji in each snap.

The big feature here is the new Travel Mode, which will disable the application from preloading Stories that can take up a lot of mobile data. Once you enable Travel Mode in your Settings menu, you’ll just need to tap on each Story to make it begin loading.

There are a few other features coming to the app in this update as well. You’ll now be able to insert as many emoji as you’d like in each snap, anywhere you’d like. Previously, emoji placement was restricted to a single line of text. Additionally, you can now see who has viewed your Stories. Simply tap the small eye icon next to your Story to find out which of your followers have viewed it.

The update is now live in the Play Store, so head to the link below to grab the latest version.
