Whatsapp has just brought in a new feature, and it's pretty much the same as Snapchat.

The messaging app is now letting its users to share photos, videos and gifs that will vanish from their timeline within 24 hours.

You will also be able to write on your images and decorate them. Sound familiar?

The new feature is called Status and according to the Mail Online, it was introduced because Whatsapp wants to move away from traditional texting methods.

But, Whatsapp isn't the only app to welcome this feature. In the past year alone, Facebook and Instagram has offered its users similar components to its services, with rumours that Twitter is going to follow suit.

Is it just us, or are all the social media networks morphing into one?

Ah, the Irish Mammy.

While we wished they would stop bugging us about our dirty rooms when we were growing up, we now have a deep love for them and their old Irish sayings.

Because, let's be real – they ALL say the same thing.

That's what this Co. Clare Snapchatter honed in on in his latest video, where he talked his fans through the phrases we hear errr'day.

Some of the most popular included, "That's it, where's the wooden spoon," "Did you hear who died last night," and "Did you turn off the immersion?"

Basically, Patrick just covered every sentence that was uttered shouted to us as kids.

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are already couple goals, I mean, we've all seen that infamous pool side chicken wings picture.

But after last night's Grammy's party, the couple's Snapchats had us crying with laughter.

Chrissy got a teeny bit too tipsy at the party, and decided to document her post-Grammy adventures on the instant sharing app. 

“Okay, I’m home. We’re having ramen,” she declared in the first video, making us all feel a little bit better about our 4am food choices.

Next thing we knew, Chrissy was on the ground, removing her gorgeous jewellery with the help of her equally gorgeous husband. 

Channelling all of our inner drunk girls, she asked: "Are you mad at me?"

“Why would I be mad at you? …You’re perfect,” he replied, melting hearts the world over.

”Cause I got drunk,” she replied, cementing the couple's status as our official relationship goals.

However, the model turned TV presenter was feeling the effects of her night out the following day, as she tweeted about her hangover.

We feel you Chrissy, we feel you.

Our go-to girl for laughs and giggles, Holly Carpenter, was sent home from the Irish Celebrity Masterchef kitchen last night.

While the judges didn't fancy her Malteser cheesecake dessert (we, on the other hand, would have gobbled it down), Holly kept her head up high.

While speaking to Shemazing! last week, the model admitted that it would have been worse if it was a competition for something she actually did as a living.

"It's totally different from when I was on Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model. Like, modelling is what I do for a living, so if I messed up on that competition, I would have felt really bad about it.

"But I really chose to do Masterchef to have a bit of fun, learn a bit more about cooking and really challenge myself."

Moving on from all things food, it's safe to say that Holly has made herself into something of a Snapchat star in recent years, and with Kris Jenner and Ashton Kutcher fans of her work, we'll take any tips on how to become a star of the snaps.

So, how does Holly have such a huge fan base? Well…

She knows her target

"You have to figure out who you want to appeal to on Snapchat. What age group or what demographic? Are they into make-up, dogs, health or fitness? Who do you really want to appeal to and who do you actually want as a follower," says Holly.

 

She's selective

"At the stage I'm at now, I have brands contacting me, asking to collaborate. But sometimes you have to say no if they don't appeal to your audience. So, don't just put something up for the sake of it. You have to be really selective in the subjects you cover – especially starting off."

 

She talks

"I know this might sound silly, but I actually talk to my followers. It's 90 percent about what you say, and only 10 percent about the picture. I find if you talk to them and talk them through what you're doing, you'll see a big reward."

 

And for anyone who is only beginning their Snapchat career, Holly believes taking on board these seven tips will get you off to a great start:

  • Put your idea and what you want to do (to make you stand out from the crowd) down on paper
  • Write down what excites you first, and then what you think will excite your audience
  • Follow who you aspire to be like
  • Plan ahead – write down an outline of what you want to cover in the next week/month
  • Have a backlog – in case you're busy one week, you'll have something to go back to so your Snapchat doesn't run dry
  • Don't compare to others – everyone is at a different place in their life
  • Believe you can do it

Holly thinks it's all about longevity and hopefully with these little tips, you'll be soaring before you know it.

Snapchat is probably one of the fastest-growing social media networks of the past few years.

And with 2017 looking huge for the the company, it looks like another major player is hopping on board.

Disney has announced that they will create short shows that will exclusively be available on Snapchat for a 24-hour period.

According to Reuters, the first show will be called Watch Party: The Bachelor, and you won't have to wait to see it, because it kicks off January 3.

It'll be about recapping the events of the US TV show, as it starts its 21st season on January 2. And taking from this, the Disney shows will be aimed more at adults than children – so that's good news for us!

Apart from that though, the two companies are said to be working closely together and have extensive plans for the months and years to come.

We can't wait!

Snapchat just released it's December update, and we are beyond excited about some of the new features.

The big update comes in the form of the highly anticipated group chat feature, allowing up to 16 people to chat together.

Additionally, it includes a way to leave the group and private message with one group member before rejoin the chat crew. 

We wouldn't advise saying anything you wouldn't want the rest of the group to hear though, it's just one slip of the thumb away from being broadcast to the entire chat crew!

The new feature is reminiscent of WhattsApp but, like all Snapchats, the messages disappear after 24 hours. 

Snapchat has also hooked up with Shazam, the handy song identifier app.

Snapchat addicts can now identify a song playing through the new Shazam feature of the app wherever they are, without having to X out of the app. 

Artistic snapchatters can now make stickers and get creative with their snaps using the new scissors tool.

Paint brush is the fourth and final update feature, and allows you to give your snaps in memories a new look using different artistic styles.

Facebook also introduced new camera features this week, with a Snapchat geotag style camera that gives locations different frames.

Instagram also just rolled out "disappearing photos and videos" that can be sent directly to individuals, as well as a live stream feature.

In this day and age, it's hard to escape any event without someone documenting the whole thing on Facebook/Instagram/Twitter/Snapchat.

It's just one of those things that we have to live with, like it or not.

And while couples are now including 'no social media' messages on their invitations, you'd think a bride, at her own wedding would be able to do whatever she wanted.

This was not the case for a certain Saudi Arabian bride last week, because her new husband decided to divorce her after TWO hours, just because she put a picture up on Snapchat. We kid you not.

The bride's brother told Okaz: "There was a prenuptial agreement between my sister and her fiancé that she would not use social media applications such as Snapchat, Instagram or Twitter to post or send her pictures.

"It was included in the marriage contract and became binding. Regretfully, my sister did not honour the pledge and used Snapchat to share pictures from the wedding ceremony with her female friends, resulting in the shocking decision by the groom to cancel their marriage and call for divorce."

Well, at least she can snap away 'til her heart's content now! Use that Snapchat filter sistaaa!

There are many, many things grown men should just never do.

And top of the list is to wear a nothing but a jaunty cap while wandering around the house butt-naked.

Unfortunately for Marnie Simpson's Snapchat followers, the Geordie Shore's star boyfriend, Lewis Bloor, never got the memo and was more than happy to be filmed doing exactly that.

After recently deleting all trace of Lewis from her social media accounts, Marnie came back with a bang this week… and we really wish she hadn't.

Sharing footage of the TOWIE star wearing little more than a grin – oh, and a strategically-placed aubergine – Marinie confirmed that the love story which blossomed in the Celebrity Big Brother house is far from over.

Well, thanks for that.

*Sigh*

Geordie Shore’s Gary Beadle has been hospitalised after a night out in Loughborough.

The popular reality star sparked concern among fans last night when he posted a series of Snapchats from Leicester’s Royal Infirmary after injuring his knee while making a nightclub appearance.

The 28-year-old shared a picture of two ambulances with the caption “Not how you want your night to end” before uploading a video of himself being pushed around A&E in a wheelchair.

He wrote: “STILLLLL in hospital #RIPgazsknee.”

Hours later Gaz tweeted: “Fractured knee tho.  MRI scan on Friday…House bound for me.”

This just gets better and better.

Blac Chyna has released her finacé Rob Kardashian's number on Twitter, just days after the sock entrepreneur shared his sister Kylie's number onto the same site.

But Chyna apparently had a good reason for doing what she did – because he's still texting "females."

The reality star took to the social media site and simply wrote: "Rob Kardashian Number." And then wrote the ten-digit number beside it.

His mobile was disconnected less than an hour after she leaked it.

The soon-to-be mum-of-two then took to Snapchat to explain her actions.

In one video, Rob is standing beside her when she says: "To make sure my man's not texting no b*tches, just to be sure, just tweet his number out. How that feel Rob?!"

Rob then just replies: "It feels good."

She then shared another video, saying: "Since all these females want to keep texting his phone because they had his number before talking about, 'You good? You and Chyna good?' Naw, we're good, we're straight." she fumed.

We just don't even know how this is going to end.

“What’s the Facebook that fades?”

Familiar as I am with trying to follow my mother’s somewhat erratic train of thought, this one, in particular, threw me.

“The… sorry… the Facebook that fades?” I repeated slowly.

“Don’t look at me like I’ve ten heads. Just tell me,” she demanded.

Staring straight ahead, I tried to visualise a social media page that fades, and then the penny dropped.

“Snapchat?” I ventured.

“That’s the one!” she beamed. “The kids are mad for it. Are you on it?”

The woman – who thinks I should work for Google because I know how to turn off our router – stared at me beseechingly.

She waited for me to tell her all about this magic fading Facebook so she could commit the information to memory for ten minutes before forgetting we ever had the conversation.

And I couldn’t let her down.

“Yeah Mam, I’m on it. All the time. Love it. Can’t get enough. Bye now. Have to go snappin’ and chattin’. Laters.”

I’m not on Snapchat.

And this is because I’m 29, and must resign myself to the notion that Snapchat is for kids… or people with much more patience than me.

I have officially mastered all the social media sites I’ll ever need to, and I’m just gonna have to live without this one.

Don’t get me wrong; I tried, alright.

Oh, I downloaded it, and I made some pals, and I got random photos of people with dogs' ears on their heads, and then I deleted it.

Because… what the hell?

“But it’s so much craic,” I’m told.

Well, either I’m no longer any craic or they’ve changed what craic is, but seeing a photo of my friend with a rainbow over their head is about as funny as… well… it’s not that funny.

And even if I did love it, and couldn’t get enough of their slick rainbow stylings, I’d have ten seconds to enjoy it before it disappears forever.

What the hell is the point?

And believe me, I was more than happy to rattle out this spiel whenever the subject arose, but as the months go on I’m getting fewer and fewer nods of recognition.

In fact, my disdain – OK fine, my confusion – regarding the app is now met with the same face I reserve for my father when he insists he can’t work our family’s cordless phone – incredulity mixed with smugness followed by a large helping of fear.

“I might turn out like her one day,” they’re thinking. “Christ, she’s probably still on Bebo.”

I’m not on Bebo, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss it.

When Stephanie Davis announced her pregnancy earlier this year, the former Hollyoaks actress was plagued by reports and rumours that the pregnancy was nothing more than a publicity stunt.

And while Stephanie defended herself online and in interviews, it took months for the Celebrity Big Brother contestant to escape the doubt that surrounded her when news first landed that she and Jeremy McConnell were expecting a child together.

But seven months into her nine-month journey, the reality star's obvious bump began to do the talking for her… until it disappeared, that is.

Taking to Snapchat this week, the 23-year-old shared a shot of herself on a her 'babymoon', and her distinct lack of bump got fans and followers talking.

"Feel like Stephanie Davis's bump changes size every time I see a pic of her," wrote one confused fan of the star.

"Cannot actually deal with Stephanie Davis's bump, why is it huge in some pics and non existent in others?" asked one while another added: "Umm, Steph where's your baby?"

 

In fairness, you can see where the confusion arises… right?
