Snapchat's new user-friendly design

Snapchat has a new design, one that could make it easier to navigate for users who are
old and easily confused, like me.
The big new addition is a new search bar on top.
So if you’re trying to find a specific person, or a particular Discover publisher, you just
type them in.
It also offers Quick Chat recommendations, shows your group chats, and if you’re having
trouble remembering who someone is, just hold down on their image and you’ll see their
mini profile.
Outside of the search bar, if you’re trying to submit content to Snapchat’s Our Story
section, it’s now easier to do that too — you just check the box next to Our Story
when you’re posting something.
This probably won’t feel like a dramatic change for most regular users, since the rest
of Snapchat’s navigation is still in place.
But remember that this is app that’s always had a reputation for being pretty hard to
understand if you’re outside the core demographic of young adults, so even adding a little bit
of guidance is a big deal — and it could be a sign of how Snapchat is trying to become
more friendly and accessible as it prepares to go public.
