2) Apply up to 3 filters on a single photo on Snapchat

With the help of this trick, you will be able to apply three filters in a single image.

You can add a color filter, give your location and even put temperature or time and all this in a single photo.

Follow the simple steps and apply 3 filters at a time.

Open the Snapchat app on your smartphone.
Then click on a normal picture that you normally do.
Now slide your finger as usual and apply the first sepia filter.
Once you’ve selected the first one, keep your hit and secure your first filter.
Then use your other hand and slide your finger again and find the other filter you want to put on the photo, i.e. location, temperature, etc.
Once you’ve chosen your other filters, simply release the screen swipe for a moment before tapping and holding again.
Now that you are done and dusted, after this, you can swipe again and choose your third filter.

By the above means, you will be able to apply up to three filters on Snapchat on a single photo.

Isn’t it cool?

And in case you are not satisfied with the 3 filters, just swipe right to remove all three filters.

This will not ensure that you return to the unfiltered image that was clicked in the first place.

3) Try changing the ‘Information’ filters

Information filters on Snapchat include speed, temperature, time, and altitude.

But not only this, each of these has different variations.

The speed filter has two options that you can change from miles per hour to kilometers per hour.

The temperature also has two options, Fahrenheit and Celsius.

Therefore, you can also switch between them.

In altitude, you can convert feet to meters. You can also change the filter from time to date.

Although personally, the temperature filter is very attractive, not only can you switch from Fahrenheit to Celsius, but you can also continue to tap to display the full three-day or hourly forecast with weather icons.

To change the filter options, just tap on each one and it will change from miles per hour to kilometers per hour, etc.

4) Change the color of each word and letter in the text option on Snapchat

While using the text function after clicking an image, you usually type text in different font sizes.

But what if I told you that you can change the color of each letter in a word.

To be honest, it will be really cool, and you will be able to make an impression in front of your friends, which will leave them asking “How did you do that?”

Follow the following means to change the color of individual words and letters.

Open the Snapchat app on your smartphone.
Then click on a normal picture that you normally do.
Now write a title and select the “T” icon at the top (this will ensure the largest size text)
Next to begin with selecting a color from the color palette
Now click on any word in the text you have typed and click on the select option to highlight the word
From here, move the highlight over any letter or entire word and change its color.
