Snapchat brings camera shortcut to the iPhone lock screen

iPhone users with iOS 18 can replace the flashlight or native camera on their lock screen with a shortcut to the Snapchat camera.

Snapchat says more than 55,000 Snaps are created every second on average, and that through this integration, the app is making it easier to capture a moment as it happens. The company also revealed that you can customize the iPhone 16’s Camera Control button to open Snapchat and click it to capture moments quickly.
