For instance, a friend can simply flash their Snapchat camera at your Snapcode, which will immediately add you, without you having to manually look up their handle and tap the “add” button. Snapcode: A Snapcode is a scannable code that makes adding new friends even easier.A reel can only be played back for 24 hours, after which, it disappears for good, though you can always save your entire story, or an individual snap from your story, to the Memory section - aka private storage - of your Snapchat to keep forever. They can tap through your story and watch every snap to experience your entire day. They’ll appear to your followers as a “story” reel. Story: You can link snaps together and broadcast them as you capture them.So, if you Snapback, you’re just replying to a private one-on-one snap that you’ve received.

The Snapchat app itself is also colloquially referred to as “Snap”, as is the app’s developer/public company. So, when someone asks you to snap them, they are asking you to send them a photo or video through Snapchat, or even a message through the app’s chat function.

Snap: When you take a photo or video, or receive a photo or video, it is known as a “snap”.

Snapchatter: It’s not as common anymore, but it means a user of Snapchat.
