Because SnapChat (seen below, yellow icon) makes the \u201csnap\u201d or photo vanish after 10 seconds, SnapChat has become a flirtatious\/sexting channel for teens. Well, until now.<\/p>\n<p>Now, there\u2019s an app to intercept and save those cute little \u201csnaps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s called Snap Save (iPhone, iPad) or SnapCapture (for android). Designers created the app specifically to allow a SnapChat user to save any content that comes to their phone. While kids could do this on many smart phones prior to Snap Save, by simply taking a screen shot of the text, SnapChat would send the user an alert saying their SnapChat had been saved.<\/p>\n<p>Both Snap Save (seen below, pink icon) or SnapCapture (blue icon)\u00a0<i>do not notify the sender<\/i> that the photo has been saved and allows anyone to capture and circulate any SnapChat they wish.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-29017\" src=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-03-06-at-12.29.54-AM1.png\" alt=\"Screen-Shot-2013-03-06-at-12.29.54-AM\" width=\"115\" height=\"110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-03-06-at-12.29.54-AM1.png 191w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-03-06-at-12.29.54-AM1-32x32.png 32w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 115px) 100vw, 115px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-29025\" src=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-04-at-5.07.59-PM1.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2013-09-04 at 5.07.59 PM\" width=\"114\" height=\"110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-04-at-5.07.59-PM1.png 247w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-04-at-5.07.59-PM1-32x32.png 32w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 114px) 100vw, 114px\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-29153\" src=\"https:\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2013-09-10 at 1.21.02 PM\" width=\"106\" height=\"106\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM.png 189w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM-32x32.png 32w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM-64x64.png 64w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM-96x96.png 96w, https:\/\/www.mcafee.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-10-at-1.21.02-PM-128x128.png 128w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 106px) 100vw, 106px\" \/><\/a>As a parent, I\u2019m thrilled about this app and see it as a cyber security tool. (If your child has the Safe Eyes app for iOS, then that\u2019s our first recommendation for mobile filtering). Hopefully, the added risk of someone saving a racy photo or a SnapChat designed to bully or spread rumors, will be a big deterrent for some kids. On the other hand, <i>Snap Save<\/i> in the hands of a bully . . . well, you know how that story goes as well (as you know, anything can be exploited online).<\/p>\n<p>So let your child know (or remind them) that this new app is out there in case she has or is thinking of sending any not-so-smart snap chats. And, let her know it\u2019s out there in case she wants to document a bullying or reckless snap chat someone else may send.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>3 Family Talking Points on Privacy:<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><b>Nothing is private online.<\/b> No matter how cool an app seems, everything shared lives somewhere in cyberspace and any app can be hacked. Don\u2019t be fooled.<\/li>\n<li><b>Face to face still rules.<\/b> While SnapChat gives some kids a sense of courage to share feelings or private thoughts with another person, those are always best shared in person. Remind your child that feelings and relationships are very real and should not be \u201csnapped\u201d across cyberspace or treated casually (that precedent is tough to reshape).<\/li>\n<li><b>Practice integrity.<\/b> It\u2019s been said often that integrity is how you conduct yourself when no one is looking\u2014in the Internet Safety world we call that cyber ethics. So, just because an image or message will vanish in 10 seconds is no reason to compromise one\u2019s integrity or anyone else&#8217;s. Remember: Thirty seconds in cyberspace can wreck a relationship, a reputation, or both.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h5><em>Toni Birdsong<\/em><em> is a <a href=\"\/\/securingtomorrow.mcafee.com\/author\/toni-birdsong\">Family Safety Evangelist<\/a> to <a title=\"McAfee\" href=\"http:\/\/home.mcafee.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">McAfee<\/a>.
