Any news on Snapchat?

[ygtgngr]

I know it's not likely for snapchat to release an official app, however are there any words on allowing 3rd parties again?

Nothing, sadly. I really wouldn't hold my breathe.

The unfortunate thing about the official Snapchat is you can't use images from your gallery, like 6snap could. So even if you picked up a cheap Nexus 7 (2013) you still couldn't really post your own Snaps most of the time, cause you probably wont carry a tablet everywhere. You could atleast view Snaps, but...

I did grab a Nexus 7 just for those few Android Apps we don't have. It works, but its not totally convenient, all the time.

No news, if there was an inkling of news, you wouldnt be able to miss it.

It won't be able to launch. Unless Snapchat grow up and allow it.

I didn't know this but it isn't that unfortunate really. Can you imagine if someone sent out an ill-advised picture (I refuse to call it a "snap") and someone saved it to their own gallery and then it was sent out to everyone else on THAT persons friends list or however it works?

Snap chat would be in a lot of trouble. So perhaps that is why they apparently they restrict it to unique, real-time camera photos only(??).
