SnapCast - A podcast all about Snapchat

It’s been a while. Some things have changed, others.... have not. Be patient while I dust off my podcasting skills, or lack there of. New Season of SnapCast is coming soon!

Some of my thoughts and hopes for this 2nd Snap Summit coming this week. Really hoping for some cool new app features and an iPad version of Snap Lens Studio.

A quick update to the last episode. Many thanks to all that have reached out to me on Snap!

Eek! It’s been months since the last episode. Here me ramble on about what I have been up to for the last few months (spoiler alert: nothing).

In this episode I do a quick follow up on Bitmoji TV and what I think of the service. I also take a look into a possible redesign rumor of Snapchat, and what I think that would do to the app. Also there is a really great video by Sam Sheffer about a Spectacles and where they stand today.

A short episode this time around— some news on the launch of Bitmoji TV, new snap code stickers, an easy way to buy Snap stock and I get caught being a dork.

A few quick updates on all things snap. Cameos is an awesome feature and I am loving it. Also there is a new Bitmoji TV series coming to Snapchat and I give my thoughts on that and a few other things that are great about Snapchat.

This episode I dive into Snap Cameos, kind of. Or at least what we know of them at this time. I also take a look at some new sticker options called “topic stickers” and wonder what the future holds for these. Also I found a really cool snapper... snachatter? .... whatever we call ourselves.

In this episode I talk about the new spectacles features that are rumored to come, and also I have some beef that needs to be addressed with popular accounts on Snapchat.

In this episode I talk about the cool new features of Snap’s AR bar feature. I also talk about what it would be like if Snapchat borrowed the Twitter topics idea and integrated it into their own app. Happy listening!

It is been a long long time since I have last recorded. I’m excited to announce season two of snap cast! In this episode I talk about a few things that of been floating around in the news in the last couple of months surrounding Snapchat. Including Amazons half baked project the Amazon echo glasses as well as some questionably flattering that Instagram has done lately. As well as when’s best! Thank you for listening to the show and be sure to screenshot your phone and use the shows album artwork to follow me on Snapchat. Happy listening!

Breaking! Snapchat is launching a new 3D Snap tool! Do you have it yet?! Also, I talk about a new ‘viral’ lens, offer my thoughts on politics on Snapchat and also talk about the *best* new Snap Original show, Dead of Night.

Instagram is making another app (eye roll) and it seems like it’s trying to “take a shot” at Snapchat once again with the effort. Snap Lens studio got a welcomed update and there is a new Snapchat focused app on the block, “LMK.”

Snap surprised us all and released an update on their Spectacles line of sunglasses. Spectacles 3 are very interesting and come with some very exciting new features, but leave out one great feature that was supported in V2! Also, CNN has an article out about the OLC community!

In this episode I talk about the competing Snapchat app, Instagram, and their new official name. I also talk about some of the ways that people use Snapchat, and also a podcast that talks about that. I also talk about the most exciting thing that there is to talk about, and that is stock prices.

Spectacles Challenge follow up from the last episode, plus a new #realfriends campaign from Snap as well as trying out the beta version of the iOS app.

Some news on Snapchat on Android, noticeable changes on the app updates that have some they and...drum roll..... a first ever Spectacles Challenge! Mark your calendars for July 27!

Spectacles are about to get a little more popular thanks to their official Instagram account. Also, I feel like Specs should get their own dedicated app to increase popularity.

Thanks for listening! This episode has been long overdue, so I have quite a few things I wanted to talk about, of the many topics I talk about Lens Studio making its way to the Mac App Store and what this could mean for a iPadOS version of that some day down the road. Also in the news are special land markers in Canada with a popular fast food chain, a gigantic collaboration of a lens app, and Jony Ive leaves Apple Inc and what this might look like for other tech products in the future.

And this weeks episode I talk about some of the updates to the snap map that I’ve seen and also a rumored events invite page that will exist in a hopeful future update of the app. I also talk about an update that just recently was pushed to the app on iOS talking about charms and immediately get disappointed by my discovery of it by opening the app. Verge article: https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2019/6/7/18656449/snapchat-events-facebook-clone-experiment-testing?utm_campaign=theverge&utm_content=chorus&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&__twitter_impression=true
