Snapchat’s Scan feature gets new upgrade: Here’s what is new

Snapchat introduced its Scan feature two years ago, allowing Snapchat users to quickly point their phones at objects and know more about them. Today, the company has rolled out an update to the feature that brings the Scan button front and center to increase its functionality.

The next generation of Snapchat Scan will allow users to scan many more elements including food items, plants and clothing, among others. The company has also stated that the update will begin rolling out to 100 percent of iOS users and Android users over the next few weeks.
