According to the snapchat there were more than 700+ million photos and videos are shared by the users per day. there are many photo sharing apps that are available on the market but snapchat became more popular of it simple and easy user interface. Snapchat is already available on Android and iOS, here’s how to get Snapchat on Windows.The snapchat app is about to share photos, videos and to share the snap stories. Earlier, there was a surefire way to run Snapchat on PC by using the BlueStacks emulator. In case you’re living under a rock, Snapchat allows you to send (often useless) pictures and videos to your contacts. However, recently Snapchat updated its app to block emulators and now BlueStacks is unable to run the app. Pictures are often viewed for a limited amount of time, whilst videos are played from start to finish, unless your contact has had enough of you raging about bus times in England.Īccording to Evan Spiegel, Snapchat’s CEO, the app has more than 100 million daily users, who spend around 25-30 minutes per day on it. Unfortunately, the app was limited to your phone only, until Bluestacks came around and enabled Snapchat to be used on their free Android emulator. Getting Bluestacks to work on your computer is very simple, just download the file 298MB file from its website and run the installer and you’ll now have the emulator installed. Go through the setup process and link the Bluestacks application to your Google account which you will need when setting up any Android device.

Once setup is complete, go to the Play Store and download Snapchat. To use Snapchat, you’ll need a camera on your computer.

However, you will be able to view other people’s Snaps and also your contact’s stories (providing you’re connected to the internet). Do bear in mind that a computer without a camera will prompt you with multiple errors, but if you continuously click ‘Cancel’, you’ll be able to use Snapchat, without having to connect a camera – naturally you won’t be able to take any Snaps yourself. If you do have a camera, simply click on the centre button on the app to take a quick snap of yourself, or hold it down to record a video. You will need a microphone for this, but given that most cameras nowadays have a mic built-in, it shouldn’t be a problem.
