[@leojrobison2102]

It's better now on my OnePlus 7 Pro, they mainly prioritize iPhone becuase more iPhone users use it, plain and simple. But things like Facebook work REALLY well with Android... Because more Android users use it. Nothing about the acually phones and how alot of Apple users (not all) say it's "shitty and laggy". The last time it was laggy was in 2013 when the first touch screen Androids came out... But it was the same at first for EVERYONE, even Apple since it was so new at the time!

chimaera41 true

[@danfrederiksen1973]

chimaera41 actually he's not. The real problem is that the subscribed content is almost hidden now. That's like instagram killing it's core content that you subscribed to and only showing discovery. It's inexplicably stupid. Snapchat was surviving despite number sellouts who failed to appreciate the intimacy value of snapchat but this feels like a snapchat suicide. It's like they urinated on everything and proudly asked their users to gobble it up. It's incredibly tonedeaf. Remember when ray william johsson ended his show for a moment and the 10m audience never returned. If they don't change back instantly this is it.

[@EpicLPer]

Every modern Android OS and even slightly older ones have standardized Camera APIs tho which every app developer can easily use. There's no excuse for Snapchat to not use this API and instead trying to implement their own crap.

[@592Johno]

EpicLPer my point exactly

[@therealventures]

They lazy af

[@LimitedWard]

The problem is that version 2 of the camera API (the one that lets you take better photos) was released with Lollipop. Roughly half of all Android devices are still pre-lollipop, which means half of Android users will be unaffected if Snapchat supports the new API. That being said, it's still astonishing that such a big company can't put the RnD into supporting both apis.

[@acollierr17]

I wouldn't say Snapchat Android OS developers are lazy. It's just they might not fully realize that Android isn't one size fits all. Just like Marques said Snapchat and other major apps are fixated towards the 2-3 iPhones. And that's REALLY easy to work with. However, Snapchat simply hasn't converted yet. It's a simple update that they could work on doing, but hey I'm not sure where their priorities are at. Just my thought on the matter.

[@807800]

LimitedWard "Roughly half of all Android devices are still pre-lollipop", Nope!. 82.3% are on lollipop and above. Lollipop 24.6%, Marshmallow 28.1%, Nougat 28.5%, Oreo 1.1%

Snapchat’s new update actually boosted discovery.... but only for celebrities.

Having said that, I think it’s incredibly annoying that I know see post Malone hitting a blunt or some shit when I didn’t sign up for it. The alternate bad side to the update is that less people now see your personal story as they are mixed in with the direct sending page, burying some stories the bottom never to be seen.

It drains a fucking insane amount of battery because the camera is always on when using the app. So even when chatting with someone it's still using the camera. It's fucking retarded!!

[@glittergaming5257]

Yes!!

[@OdysseyTag]

Yea, and the filters have latency and tracking issues on Android. It feels like a sticker trying to find your follow your face with a 2 second delay and I use a Galaxy Edge. Honestly unusable for Android users.

[@leglaff5096]

JustNaturallyBoss It completely bricked my android

[@Robert.K]

5 years later and nothing has changed.

[@armansomething]

[@dils4190]

What Snapchat needs to do: - Support Android - Bring back best friends - Make discovery page more accessible

[@blazin220]

Dil S nooo best friends can stay gone 😂😂

[@KMLogue]

Wait best friends are gone on the new update? That’s shitty. Good thing I’m not updating.

[@dils4190]

KMLogue I mean best friends that everyone could see

[@player1lean]

Dil S and to change username

[@Anondez]

[@goromeREACT]

I Been on Snapchats side for a long time, but it's time to say goodbye

[@PixelsPeeper]

Smart!

[@TheDarkMaster02]

If you leave snapchat that easily, you were probably too old for the app anyways.

[@goromeREACT]

[@randomcontent4620]

TheDarkMaster02 what are you 12??

[@TheDarkMaster02]

[@jeremygonzaga4080]

[@monsterva]

[@billycraig6740]

[@Dacite6]

[@noahshighlightreel]

Yes s20 ultra here

[@alexzhou4443]

It's 2020 now, and my Snaps taken at night with my OnePlus 8 Pro look literally like pictures from WW1 documentaries...

[@MartinRockstrom]

Same, also got the OP8 Pro, and it just looks terrible. It’s understandable why it is how it is, but still, I still avoid using the camera in 3:rd party apps.

[@ArnoldsKtm]

Instagram killed snapchat. Now snapchat killed itself.

[@abel3619]

Snapchat killed instagram. But is now headed in the same direction as instagram.

[@JYMAHJAMES]

Instagram is just better anyway

[@ayushneekhar]

King_Abel lol Instagram is nowhere near dead

[@alexlam24]

ArnoldsK The new update sucks

[@CursedCamel]

I'm gonna kill myself

[@Littlegoblinfatface]

If you implemented a way to find people through the app like instagram discovery it wouldnt be ‘cool’ anymore. Snapchat isnt a place to follow brands and meme channels, thats what twitter is, and what instagram has become. Snapchat is cool, its exclusive, if it changes too much and becomes a way of meeting people not interacting with people from your everyday life it loses that casual feel to it. Snapchats its own thing. Dont make it more like instagram

[@ammarharith5512]

It'll die, just like Vine.

[@jasonl.1503]

Ammar Harith Vine is coming back though lmaoo

[@Frankenshein]

Futura Free snapchats already doing they did a flop update imo

[@nikaley]

You can argue about Snapchat being hip and cool, but Instagram Stories have surpassed Snapchat a long time ago. The thing is: being hip is only a benefit in the beginning. There are a lot of costs that need to be covered. Consumers are not willing to pay for a service like this. Especially not the hip, young demographic. So there need to be investors and advertisers. But these advertisers are only going to advertise on the platform if they see a rise in revenue. Snapchat has lost the credibility of a lot of investors, advertisers AND consumers. Just look at Marques. He explained pretty well why Instagram Stories are better for him as an “influencer”. IGS is also better for companies. It’s better for private people as well. The usability is far better on IGS than on SC. IG in general is far more open than SC. And IGS’ ties to regular IG profiles with photos and videos that don’t disappear after a certain amount of time is a perfect way to create a look and feel for not just companies but also for private people. I honestly have to say: they should’ve sold SC to Facebook back when they had the possibility. Now it’s gradually but slowly turning into a sinking ship. I’m not hating on Snapchat, but their “redesign” is making things only worse.

[@ammarharith5512]

Dominik Kohlstruck Well done. 😀

[@Itachii-37]

2 years later... nothing has changed

[@varunmishra3496]

You know who makes total sense - this guy MKBHD. Some social app should hire you as a tech consultant

[@Shivipree123]

R.I.P SNAPCHAT...🤣🤣

[@Lerberuz]

I have an S8 Plus and I notice the quality difference between Iphone and Android on Snapchat, but I totally agree with you. The top end Android phones do deserve more attention from snap because if we pay good money for a nice camera on a high end device, we should get the same high quality through Snapchat.

[@elijahojo2549]

MrSteelCurtain yeah new android phones with good cameras should be able to use the actual camera and not the screengrab

[@caza_]

You pay good money for a good camera but there is not enough S8 plus in the world to get more attention than now from the devs

[@jeffjohnston2140]

Devs of Snapchat don't have to satisfy you because you bought an android.

[@elijahojo2549]

No don’t get me wrong. I have an iPhone 8 Plus. But I have friends with a $929 Samsung galaxy note 8. The note 8 in some ways is better than the new iPhone X. I believe the s8 and the note 8 should have a camera in Snapchat and not just a screen grab. To prove my point take the pixel 2. This is an android phone, but yet it uses a actual camera, not a screen grab. This goes to show you that Snapchat developers are pulling favorites toward iPhone users even though android users with high end phones deserve the respect they give us. Even Marques brown knows because his favorite phone is the pixel 2.

[@caza_]

Elijah ojo yeah but there is still alot more iPhone users... each iPhones is sold 10x more than any samsung

[@guayabagirl5]

I love instagram for many reasons, but I love how u explain snapchat situation, hopefully it gets better, but I'm with you staying with instagram for now

[@RaylanLed]
