New Delhi: The Indian festival of lights, Diwali is just around the corner and on the occasion, Snapchat is introducing a new set of augmented reality lenses, stickers, games and Bitmojis.
The Spotlight section, which is Snapchat’s community driver video platform, is hosting a #LightUpSpotlight event where creators are encouraged to record and share Diwali outfits, dance and other Diwali-themed videos.
Moreover, it will have multiple Diwali-themed AR lenses and geo-filters that would go perfectly with the festivities. One such AR lens is something that lets users give their local sweet shops a makeover. Users can use virtual firecrackers, floral decor, and diyas to give budding sweet shops in their locality a Diwali twist, then share the Snaps on the app to support them.
For unversed, Snapchat had launched a new AR lens which can be utilised to buy and find Halloween costumes, parties and events, for the Halloween season.
