Snapchat represents the Millennial zeitgeist more than any other single app. It continues to engage digitally native young audiences just as much as it appeals to traditional media brands, such as Viacom and CBS, desperate to reach young audiences on their own turf. Snapchat has ridden the music messenger app wave. But much more than most other messaging apps, Snapchat has prioritised engaging its user base with content and features – a crucial task given that it lacks anything like the scale of the messaging app market leaders. The result is that Snapchat users are some of the most digitally engaged and valuable consumers across mobile and the web.
