It would seem that Snapchat users and investors alike were shocked when it has been announced that the ‘Best Friends’ feature will be removed. This is one feature that will depict the most repeated contacted individuals, but thankfully for those who received this rude shock could heave a sigh of relief later on, as the ‘Best Friends’ feature will be restored not too long down the road. Snapchat happens to be a photo messaging application developed by Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy, and Reggie Brown, and the company also kicked off a service within the service that is known as ‘Discover’. Discover would allow users to check out curated content from a range of sources alongside the likes of CNN, ESPN, and Cosmo.
Snapchat mentioned, “Social media companies tell us what to read based on what’s most recent or most popular. We see it differently. We count on editors and artists, not clicks and shares, to determine what’s important.”
Teenagers were the most unhappy lot of all with the removal of the ‘Best Friends’ feature, but thankfully, it will be restored. The reason it was removed in the first place was due to the fact that there is a number of higher-profile friends who would prefer their usernames to remain confidential.
