Snap Inc. announced yesterday that it’d added new features to its mobile Snapchat app, including limitless snaps as well as a pair of all-new creative tools in the form of the Magic Eraser and Loop features.
For starters, you can now draw with emojis. Simply tap the doodle tool to get started. If you’d like to access Snapchat’s new Magic Eraser tool, tap the Scissors tool, then the Stars icon.
To let your friends view your snaps for as long as they want, use the new Loop tool for videos. With this Instagram Boomerang-like feature, you can easily decide whether your snap plays once or loops until your friend is ready to tap to the next one (the infinity option for the timer).
According to the company:
We’ve all felt the frustration of not being able to fully enjoy a snap—even after replaying it—and we wanted to give you the option of allowing the recipient to enjoy your snap as long as they’d like. After your friend finishes viewing the snap and taps to close it, it will delete as usual.
The new creative tools require Snapchat version 10.8 or later.
