It’s super easy now to find Snap or Stories you’re looking for by typing keywords like “dog” or “Hawaii”.

You can use Memories to create new Stories from Snaps you’ve already taken, or even combine different Stories into a longer narrative, also you can post a Snap you took before more than a day ago to your Story. Just swipe up from the Camera to open Memories.

Snapchat said that “Memories” will be rolled out gradually for people across the world, it’s not a full-launch.

Anvato is a platform for encoding, editing, publishing and distribution video across platforms.
