How to Save Time with the New Snapchat Update

Are you tired of not being able to choose which stories to watch on Snapchat? Get the new Snapchat update and no time will be wasted on this application.

The New Snapchat UpdateSnapchat users are thrilled to find out that Auto Advance is being discontinued in the new Snapchat update. This means that users can now go back to watching individual stories of their choosing. The Auto Advance update left users annoyed and dissatisfied. This adjustment made Snapchat stories automatically play one after another. Fortunately, Snapchat is now listening to people’s feedback.  The new Snapchat update now offers a Story Playlist in hopes to improve the application.

The Story Playlist is the most recent addition to the new Snapchat update. How does it work? It’s easy. To add a story to the Playlist, all users need to do is press the circular thumbnail to the left of a friend’s name. They then need to press the center button that says “play” which can be found at the bottom of the screen. After this button is pressed, users can watch all of the stories they selected one after another.

Unlike Auto Advance, the new Snapchat update enables users to simply watch one Story at a time. According to Refinery29, a company stated in a blog post, “Sometimes we just want to see what our close friends or family are up to — not all of our friends — and Auto Advance prevented that.” refinery29

Auto Advance is meant to be efficient, but it ultimately just wastes time. Most people do not have the time to watch all of their friends stories. It also gives users less freedom. The inability to be in control while using the application gives users a feeling of dependence and discontent. The new Snapchat update thankfully solves this problem, and will hopefully make users happy.
