I enjoy Snapchat. The filters are very cute and fun, and its a unique way to keep in touch with your friends. However I do not appreciate the fact that the messages and snaps erase within a matter of seconds. It rushes me to reply and to think fast about my reply. In cases were there are long messages, I wont be able to remember everything my friend said and give a proper reply. I know theres an option to save messages, but I an just to slow to do so. In another case my friends son was getting bullied and she couldnt get the messages back to show to the bullies parents because of the self-erasing. The self-erasing is a source of protection, but its not always the best option.
In all this is a fun app, but I believe that the self-erasing unnecessary to this app.
