Snapchat has launched a Home Safe feature that alerts friends when a user arrives home. It builds on the existing location sharing capabilities by allowing users to send an automatic message to their selected friends. This means friends need not check in on the user's whereabouts constantly. The alerts will automatically deactivate after being sent once, and can only be sent to friends already sharing location information with the user. Setting up the feature involves defining a home location on Snap Map and using the Map icon within conversations.
Snapchat is launching a new Home Safe feature that makes it easier to inform your loved ones when you have arrived safely after making your way home.
Home Safe allows users to send an automatic alert to chat conversations with friends to let them know they're back at home without having to remember to send direct messages.
The alerts can only be sent to friends that Snapchat users are already sharing their location with, allowing users to proactively select exactly who they want to send alerts to.
To access the feature, users need to set their home location on Snap Map, and then tap on the Map icon in their conversations to use the Home Safe button.
