Summary | Teenagers today mainly use Snapchat, 75% to be extact. In comparison, 66% use Facebook, and 47% use Twitter. One third of teenage Snapchat users said they use Snapchat because their parents are not on it. There are various apps that let parents track their children's activity on apps to make sure they do not approach addictive levels of usage. Another good way to track that is to join Snapchat as a parent and keep an eye on one's children from within the app - this is for parents who want to be less "lame" about watching over their children. Snapchat map is a recently added function that parents should be partticularly worried about enabling users to share their location at all times.

Summary | 59% of 14 to 19-year olds use Snapchat (not specified whether in US/Switzerland/world-wide) while only 6% watch television daily. Snapchat is quickly catching up with Facebook in the amount of content created by users. While Snapchat has become famous for its function to send images with captions and drawings that self-destruct after a few seconds, many new formats are now available on Snapchat: users can create collage-like “Stories” of their recent snaps that stay on the platform for 24 hours. Corporations create high-quality digital content that they distribute through Snapchat’s ‘”Discover” function, and journalists document events in real time through “Live-Stories”.
