Photo sharing app Snapchat has reportedly added new features which allows users to chat and make video calls.
According to CNET, the new update lets users chat with others for as long as they like, but as soon as they leave the chat screen, the entire conversation is wiped.
However, there is a feature which lets users save the conversation with screenshot, or tapping on chat to save it.
Snapchat, with its new update, now stands against messaging apps like whatsapp, Facebook Messenger, WeChat and more.
Meanwhile, it has also introduced video chat which is also somewhat common in mobile chat apps.
Snapchat is sticking to its 'snap' mentality, allowing people to communicate without saving any trace.
