    • The time
    • Your altitude
    • The current outside temperature
    • Location-specific filters (e.g., the city you're in)
    • Snapchat may ask you for permission to access your location if this is your first time applying location-specific filters. If so, tap Allow.
  6. Tap filters to see if they have extra options. For example, applying the temperature filter and then tapping it will display different temperature formats (e.g., Fahrenheit versus Celsius).

  7. Combine two or more filters. To do this, apply a filter you like, then hold your finger down on the screen to anchor that filter while swiping left or right with another finger.

    • For example, you can swipe to the temperature filter, then hold it down and swipe a city's filter onto your snap as well.
    • Some filters don't go together (e.g., time and altitude).
  8. Send your snap when you're finished. You can send your snap to another Snapchat user by tapping the white arrow in the bottom right corner of the screen and then selecting a friend, or post the snap as a Story for all of your friends to see by tapping the square with a plus icon next to it on the bottom of the screen. Now that you know how to apply filters to photo snaps, it's time to try video snap filters.

    • Rewind - The <<< icon will play your snap in reverse.

    • Slow Down - The snail icon slows your snap down to half-speed. This will increase your video's maximum playback time to 20 seconds (for a 10 second video).
    • Temperature
    • Time
    • Snapchat may ask you for permission to access your location if this is your first time applying filters. If so, tap Allow.
