Snap Map, launched in 2017, has reached 400 million monthly active users, transforming from a simple location-sharing tool into a comprehensive social mapping platform. New features like 'Footsteps' and 'Promoted Places' enable users to visualize exploration and connect with local businesses. This shift reflects Snapchat's focus on enhancing real-time interaction within users' physical environments. While Instagram is developing a similar 'Friend Map' feature, Snap Map currently holds a unique position in the social media landscape, facilitating real-time connectivity among friends and location-based discoveries.
Snap Map is one of the most used mobile maps in the world, and we're thrilled to see our community continue to grow. The Snap Map is helping hundreds of millions connect with friends and their favorite places.
Our Map is about more than getting directions from point A to point B; it enables Snapchatters to stay connected, in real time, to their physical world.
Snapchat has significantly expanded its map features with tools like 'Footsteps,' showing users how much of the world they've explored, reminiscent of Google Maps's 'Timeline.'
With 'Promoted Places', brands like McDonald's and Taco Bell can advertise on Snap Map, helping users discover new spots.
