Scope

Snapchat launched all the 12 AR Lenses at the same time and this is the first time they have done this. As it is a connective for brands who are willing to reach a younger audience, they made it a promotional push.

According to Snapchat, it reaches 90% of the younger audience age 13-24 and 75% of 13-24-year-old, in US, which is more than its competitor social app i.e. Facebook and Instagram. Snapchat also believes that all there is an increase in the use of AR option. It has been increased by 37% of the time spent on the AR in the past few years.

Significance through Application

As far as application, it’s significant. While Snapchat has looked to make the way toward making themed AR Lenses simpler, with template-based tools that anybody can use to put together an AR campaign, there’s as yet a degree of specialized limit required to make complex, exceptional AR encounters like these. Microsoft, obviously, has the limit in this regard, yet such a thorough campaign would be far off for most brands. It makes the Snap valuable for promotion of brands.
