Snapchat+ drops custom story expiration and notification sounds for paid users
Snapchat has given its paid users the ability to set the expiration time on their public Stories in the latest update of Snapchat+.
The announcement:
With this latest drop, Snapchat will be one of the first communications platforms that allow its subscription users to set the expiration time on their public Stories – ranging from 1 hour to 1 week!
Here’s the full list of what’s dropping at midnight tonight:
- Custom Story Expiration will let subscribers set Snaps on their story to expire after one hour or up to one week. With this new feature members can make sure their friends see their special Snaps worth sharing longer, or keep them coming back for their most fun and fleeting moments.
- Custom Notification Sounds will let Snapchatters set different tones for different friends so they can tell who Snapped them without looking at their phone.
- Custom Camera Color Borders will let Snapchatters cast their favorite hue on screen as they capture content.
- Three new exclusive, seasonal, and spooky Bitmoji Backgrounds will also offer new ways to decorate and personalise Snapchatters’ profiles for Halloween!
As a reminder, subscribers already have access to several exclusive features for AUD$5.99/month including:
- Snapchat+ Badge: Tout your Snapchat+ status with a special badge in your profile
- Priority Story Replies: Your replies will be more visible to Snap Stars
- Post View Emoji: Pick an emoji you want friends to see after they view your Snaps. It’s a signature way to sign-off your Snaps
- Bitmoji Backgrounds: Give your Bitmoji background more flair with special backgrounds like gleaming gold and a beach paradise
- Custom App Icons: Change up your homescreen with exclusive Snapchat app icons
- Rewatch Indicator: See how many people are rewatching your Stories, without telling who
- Best Friends Forever: Pin one friend as your number one with this new way to celebrate friendship on Snapchat
- Solar System: Your friends are your universe. Find a special badge on a Friendship Profile
- Ghost Trails: See the general direction of travel where friends have moved recently
Snap is also pre-announcing that come December, and just in time for the holiday season, Snapchatters will be able to gift their friends a subscription ($5.99/month) all without leaving the app! Snapchat+ is a perfect stocking stuffer for the budding digital creator or selfie-loving friend in your life – and, with frequent new feature drops, Snapchat+ is really a gift that keeps on giving.
With the addition of this latest drop, Snapchat+ subscribers now have access to more than 12 exclusive features.
