The purpose of sharing snaps and videos is to keep things light and spontaneous among friends, without having to think about it later. It is not meant to help build your long-time online presence, but rather for being silly and enjoying the moment.
Snapchat Conversations
I have already talked about how handy and beneficial it can be to have your snaps and texts disappear into thin air. But some of these factors could turn into somewhat of an inconvenience. Say you open a message from your friend but you are not able to give it your full attention right then. Or the message requires a reply but you either cannot think of one at the moment or again, you just cannot do it now. You open the message and then it disappears, and you have no idea what it said or how you were supposed to answer.
A terrible situation I guess.
