One of the strengths of Snapchat are the filters. By default, next to the shutter, a limited number of lenses are displayed that you can use to record or take fun photos. However, you should know that the filters shown in the first instance are not the only ones you can use in the Snapchat application. Here, we tell you two ways to see all the lenses in the Android app.

The easiest way to access all Snapchat filters is to enter the official gallery. Do this by tapping on the smiley face next to the shutter.

You can visit the lenses gallery as many times as you want to discover more and more filters.

Using filters from the Internet

Filters for Snapchat can also be found on the network. We recommend that you use the search engine to locate them. Then, take a snapshot of the Snapcode of the filter. As usual, the capture will be stored in the gallery.
