THE SNAPCHAT EFFECT THAT IS ABOUT TO BE FELT ON WHATSAPP CAMERA.

Snapchat is a renowned social application that seems to be running the social media space after its popularity became something to fuss over, at least up to now.

   

Snapchat's ripple effect is being felt on popular applications that run the social interactions and applications such as Facebook's Messenger and Instagram have been on the forefront to give users a taste of the Snapchat experience in a raw yet cloned form. With users embracing the changes with a sense of appetite to use these new features the use of Snapchat features is being replicated in even more applications.

Whatsapp is the latest application to borrow a leaf from Snapchat by using some of Snapchat's camera features.

The new feature on Whatsapp allows for users to make those custom colored or plain drawings on images and videos before sending them. The drawings are made using your finger. One can also add a plain or colored text to their media prior to sending. If you have used Snapchat before that is one cheeky loan Whatsapp took from Snapchat. 

As if that is not enough, Whatsapp decided to add even more valor to its camera by adding a few more features whose functionalities are synonymous with Snapchat.  Such other features include; a secondary (selfie) camera with a user interface that can illuminate bright light from the screen in cases of poor lighting for a better detailed photo. The zoom function has also been tweaked and now you will be able to adjust the zoom by sliding your finger up and down. You can also easily switch between the secondary and the primary camera.

Snapchat is impacting most applications acquired by Facebook and this gives it the bragging rights to act as the trendsetter. If your plan was to dodge Snapchat all along because you thought it was uncool, then surely the chickens have come home to roost.

To get a feel of the entire experience you could also chose to just use Snapchat to explore the intricacies right from the source.
