How to Turn ON GHOST MODE on SnapChat
0Snap Map is a new location sharing layer to the photo messaging app, where you can see
where all of your Snapchat friends are in real time and what stories they are posting. Users
might not understand that Snap is posting your location on Snap Map every time you open
the app, not just when you share Snaps to Our Story. Because Snap Map shows exactly where
you are every time you open the app, there are a number of dangerous scenarios that could
take place without a user even posting a Snap publicly. What if you’re at home alone, at
night, and open the app to view Snaps posted by friends? What if you’re walking by yourself
and get a ping that a friend sent you a Snap message, so you read it? What if you’re travelling
and want to take a pic with a location-specific filter to post later on another platform? In all of
these vulnerable situations, if you have Snap Map enabled, your location is immediately
broadcast to some, or all of the people in your Snapchat friends list.
Location sharing is not an incredibly new idea for the five-year-old app, as the app uses the
user’s location, with their permission, to tag where they are and provide geo-filters for the
person to use on their Snapchats. So you have probably already shared your location with
your friends over Snapchat before, by taking a Snapchat with a geo-filter included.
However the new update means you are constantly sharing your location with your Snapchat
friends, as long as you have the app open or are actively using it.
This has been a hot topic with Snapchat users since it was updated with a lot of people
wondering how to keep your location private from your Snapchat friends.
‘Ghost mode’ is what Snapchat call privacy. Ghost mode will let you keep you location
private but you will still be able to search around for your Snapchat friend’s location – if they
decide to keep their location public.
