10 Cool Snapchat Tricks You Need to Try

::

Snapchat is more than just a messaging app it’s packed with hidden features, fun filters, and clever tricks that can take your snaps to the next level. Whether you’re a casual user or a Snapchat pro, these cool tricks will help you impress your friends and make your stories stand out.

1. Use Two Filters at Once

Did you know you can apply two filters to a single snap? Here’s how:

• Take a photo or video.

• Swipe left or right to apply your first filter (e.g., color filter).

• Hold one finger on the screen and swipe again to add a second filter (e.g., temperature or time).

Now you have a double-filtered snap!

2. Stealth Mode: View Stories Without Being Seen

Want to watch someone’s story without them knowing?

• Turn on Airplane Mode before opening Snapchat.

• Open the story—it won’t register as a view.

• Close Snapchat, turn off Airplane Mode, and reopen the app.

Note: This doesn’t work for private stories or if the user checks their viewer list immediately.

3. Custom Geofilters for Your Location

Snapchat lets you create personalized geofilters for special events (like birthdays or weddings).

• Visit Snapchat’s Create Your Own website.

• Design your filter and set a location/time.

• Pay a small fee (prices vary based on duration and area).

Now you and your friends can use a custom filter!

4. Pin a Sticker to a Moving Object

Make stickers or emojis follow a person or object in your video:

• Record a video snap.

• Tap the sticker icon and add an emoji or Bitmoji.

• Press and hold the sticker, then drag it onto the moving object.

• Snapchat will track the movement automatically!

5. Change Your Friend Emojis

Personalize your best friends’ emojis in the app:

• Go to your profile → Settings → Friend Emojis.

• Assign different emojis to friends (e.g., for your BFF, for your pet’s account).

6. Use the Magic Eraser Tool

Want to remove unwanted objects or people from your snaps?

• Take a photo, then tap “Edit” (scissors icon).

• Select “Magic Eraser” and highlight the object you want to remove.

• Snapchat’s AI will erase it seamlessly!

7. Secret Rainbow Puke Filter

This hidden filter turns your vomit into a rainbow!

• Open the camera and tap your face to activate lenses.

• Search for “Rainbow” in the lens carousel.

• Open your mouth wide, and colorful rainbows will spill out!

8. Save Snaps Without Notifying the Sender

If someone sends you a snap, you can save it without them getting a notification:

• Open the snap and turn on Airplane Mode.

• Screenshot or screen-record the snap.

• Close Snapchat, turn off Airplane Mode, and reopen the app.

Warning: Use this ethically—some people may notice if their snap isn’t marked as opened.

9. Use Snapchat as a Music Player

Did you know you can add music to your snaps without leaving the app?

• Hold down on the camera screen to activate the “Hold to Beat” feature.

• Play a song in the background (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.).

• Snapchat will sync the music’s beat to your snaps!

10. Play Games with Friends on Snapchat

Snapchat has built-in multiplayer games you can play with friends:

• Open a chat with a friend.

• Tap the rocket icon next to the camera button.

• Choose a game like Bitmoji Party, Snake, or Zombie Rescue and invite them to play!

Snapchat is full of fun surprises, and these tricks can make your experience even better. Whether you’re using hidden filters, sneaky story views, or custom geofilters, there’s always something new to discover.
