Snapchat has introduced native support for iPad users in its latest update, marking a significant upgrade from the previously suboptimal experience. This update, version 13.4.0.41, provides a larger canvas for photo and video snaps and enhances navigation by displaying more friends.
Previously, iPad users had to run the iPhone app in a portrait mode with black borders. The new native version allows for a better experience, though it is still limited to portrait orientation. This update is part of Snapchat’s broader 2024 enhancements, which include features like editable chats, emoji reactions, and improved safety settings.
Snapchat, launched on iOS in 2011, continues to evolve with updates such as My AI, an AI chatbot, and recent improvements in chat functionality. The latest features aim to enhance user interaction and safety.
