The Venice-based startup company is suggesting for big changes to the platform’s chat screen. If the rumors hold true, the text-based interface will be seeing some major changes. The platform might even introduce digital sketch sharing, and the ability to build a photo gallery.

Snapchat is already logging millions of hours of usage. The platform shows sports highlights, reading news stories, and posting pictures. The social networking platform is looking to log even more hours. They’re looking to upgrade the Snapchat chat function to achieve it.

The co-founders and developers are working on the second generation of their chat window. They haven’t made official announcements or comments about these new updates. They are also rumored to be working on a video-editing tool that reverses playback.

Facebook will be announcing new features from Messenger at the April conference the company is hosting. WhatsApp just recently announced they will be going completely free. It will instead be getting revenue from businesses that they will collaborate with, including restaurants or Uber pickups. The platform is also looking to team up with airlines and banks.

Getting involved in virtual reality is obviously not enough, as Facebook tries to keep all their bases covered.
