Snapchat Cameo will be a new feature for the social media platform that will give users the ability to change the face of people in videos, and add their own face instead. The new Snapchat Cameo feature is currently being tested in some markets with limited availability. The company indicated that the feature is not currently ready for a worldwide release, but that it will be released to all users relatively soon.
The feature will be accessible through the Bitmoji button, where a number of different looping clips will be available to users. The new feature could help keep users on the platform engaged, and it allows users to access new types of sharable media.
