Now snapchat allowes the third-party apps to use their stories directly.
Now snapchat
is expanding the potential reach of its Stories throught allowing their users
to post them from third-party apps like Tinder and also allowing them for
deeper integration with other apps such as JioSaavn, Netflix and VSCO. Snapchat made the announcements at
its Snap Partner Summit in Los Angeles that the new feature
Tinder will be possible with a new App Stories addition with its Snap Kit, which
can be used by third-party app developers to integrate some of Snapchat’s
popular features to their apps.
In the case
of Tinder, a user will be able to create a story using the Snapchat camera that
means now they will also be able to take advantage of the AR Lenses on the app
and then they have the option of posting this story directly to Tinder from
Snapchat itself. According to the presentation, a user will be get the following
options after creating a story: My Story, Our Stories, which are default
options on Snapchat right now. But a third will be added to this called ‘My
Tinder Story.’
According to
Snapchat, this is the first step from the company to allow such deep level
integration with another app for its Stories features. Interestingly, Stories
created with Snapchat filters and Lenses are regularly posted to other
platforms like Instagram by users, influencers, given the kind of experience
the camera offers on the app.
