Snapchat users in Kosove

What is Snapchat?

Snapchat is a mobile phone app, available for both iOS and Android. You can use Snapchat for many things, like sending text messages and short videos, video calls, creating your own “Bitmoji”, and sharing content on your personal profile.  An important part of Snapchat is the Discovery section which allows us to see short content from global magazines.

This application lets you save your content in a private space where only you can see it by putting in your password. Another cool feature is the location filters who use AI to detect your location and apply the corresponding filter at any time. The special thing about Snapchat is the immediate communication using mobile phones, while social media traditionally relied on Desktop use and gathering of data.

Snapchat is so widely used in Kosova that it makes for the most used app by young people. While these youngsters spend most of their time on the internet, the majority of this time is spent exactly on Snapchat.
