Howdy!! 🤠

We're curious about your Snapchat habits! Do you use it? What do you love about it?

We're thinking about bringing The Mix to Snapchat and want to make sure we're building something you'll actually enjoy.

Tell us:

Do you use Snapchat? If so, why?

What do you love/hate about the app?

How do you think Mix could use Snapchat to its advantage?

    Snapchat is one of the main apps I use tbh. Mainly for communicating with friends and family. I love how easy it is to contact people but don't know how easy it'd be for a charity to manage. I feel like if thought out well it could be put to advantage I just don't know how as I don't know if it's been done before aha

    I do but only to see what my friends/family are up to and to talk to them. Usually I’m on and off it in 5 mins.

    It could work but I guess it depends on what the goal is.

    I’d be more likely to watch, like and comment on TheMix content on platforms like insta stories/reels , tiktok , YouTube shorts .. and that’s about it for me😅

    The Mix content used to come up on my tiktok fyp and i wasn’t even following so it does reach people

    I use snapchat but mostly just to message my friends and family tbh.

    Part of me feels it could work (not entirely sure how) whereas part of me agrees with @Slinky in that I'd probably be more likely to engage with content on Instagram and TikTok tbh.

    Not to be a complete dampener of the idea - I'd still probably try and see what's posted on snapchat if it did happen, but I'd be more likely to use other platforms

    I use Snapchat because I like the filters.

    @ella I do use snapchat for speaking to some friends and family and I have a group chat on there for freshers but I'll be honest although I use snapchat I mute the app because of the amount of notifications it can send out
