When you use Snapchat for Web, your Bitmoji will appear in chats holding a laptop to indicate to others that you’re accessing the chat via your desktop.
Once you open Snapchat for Web, you can continue your conversations from where you left them on mobile. You’ll then be prompted to complete two-step verification on your phone. So I’m hopeful that Snap will work out all these bugs.To access Snapchat for Web, you need to head to and log in with your Snapchat username and password. Typing, for instance, is just easier and faster on a computer.Īnd if you’re working on a laptop and need to send a message, tabbing over to is easier than finding your phone, picking it up, unlocking it, opening the Snap app, and then sending the message. It’s a bit of a reversal of what we’ve come to expect over the past decade, with so much innovation moving from web to mobile, but it’s a welcome one. Also, Snap is doing something significantly interesting here: taking a well-known and popular app and making its functionality available on a website. The product is available, but not officially announced as such yet - there’s no press release on the companies’ site - so perhaps there’s work to be done still. We can probably give the Snap team building Snapchat for the web a break. It shows camera with my face but there is a loading symbol where the chats should be. “Darth Turner,” a product user experience designer, had a similar experience and suggested “we’re seriously in Internet Explorer territory now.” In the early days of the internet, old-school surfers like me will remember, almost all websites were built for Microsoft’s near-ubiquitous Internet Explorer browser, meaning that many things broke if you used Netscape or another web browser.Īnother Twitter user, Jeshan, tweeted Snapchat support saying “Snapchat web won’t load my chats. That seems impossible.Īpparently I’m not alone. The solution: update the app - in other words Chrome on my desktop - to the latest version from the App Store.
