Snapchat: the 3 best alternatives

With Snapchat you can easily send pictures and videos to your friends - but other apps can do that too. We'll show you the best alternatives to Snapchat in this guide.

1. Snapchat alternative: clip chat

• With Clipchat, like with Snapchat, you can send photos and videos that self-destruct after five seconds.
• The elegant design gives a little more than the Snapchat surface. However, the additional options are somewhat poor. For example, there are no filters and the time after which the photo should disappear cannot be set.
• The app can be installed free of charge on Android and iOS devices.

2. Snapchat alternative: Wickr

• If you are primarily looking for a safe alternative to Snapchat, you should take a look at Wickr. You can use the app to send messages, pictures, etc. with 256-bit encryption.
• The app is not only suitable for chatting, but can also be used as a platform for projects with multiple users. Files up to a volume of 5 GB can be exchanged with each other via Wickr.
• Wickr can be downloaded for Android and iOS.

3. Snapchat alternative: Kaboom

• Kaboom gives you total control over your sent pictures and messages. For each unit sent, you can set the time after which or how many views it is deleted.
• The deletion process is irrevocable. After that, these are neither visible on yours nor on the recipients' devices.
• Kaboom is available as an app for Android and iOS, among others.
