Here's how to use Snapchat on a Windows PC, a Mac computer, and more so you can keep in touch with friends when your phone is on the charger.

Search for and download Snapchat, and then sign into your Snapchat account, as you would on an iOS or Android device. You only need to do this once. You’ll be up and running in seconds.

But did you know you can use Snapchat Lenses on your computer, too? Here's how to use Snap Camera on your desktop, because cute lenses shouldn't be limited to tablets and phones.

Initially, Snapchat for web will just roll out to Snapchat+ subscribers. These $3.99 per month subscriptions were introduced in June 2022, and give you access to new features like Snapchat for Web.

Snap Camera is compatible with even low-end devices, so if it is not working on your PC, the problem can be temporary. The best thing you can do in this situation is to restart the application.

For now, the service is limited to Snapchat Plus subscribers, which costs $4 a month, but the company does plan to make this new feature available to all of its users in the future, paid or not ...

Snapchat cites over 100 million users making voice and video calls each month, and that's part of why the leap to computer is happening.
