"As explained by Snap: Snapchatters can set one-time or recurring alerts for places beyond their home, offering a simple, automatic way to share when they've arrived where they are going. Arrival Notifications now work for everyday moments - like letting someone know you're back for the night while traveling, or automatically sharing when you arrive at a weekly class, practice, or meeting - without needing to remember to send a message."
"Snapchat says that alerts can only be sent to friends that a user chooses to share their location with, and location sharing on Snap Map is off by default. No one can see your location or receive an alert unless you choose to share it. If you've selected a one-time alert, it will expire once it's sent or after 24 hours."
"It's a good addition, and Snap says that its Home Safe alerts have already proven popular, with a million users activating Home Safe notifications in the past six months. And it could be particularly beneficial for parents, providing updates on their child's arrival, at wherever they're going, through automated means, rather than relying on teens to remember to send a message."
Snapchat expanded Home Safe alerts to allow users to set automated arrival notifications for any destination they travel to. Users can create one-time or recurring alerts for places beyond home to automatically share arrival status with chosen Snapchat friends. Arrival Notifications cover everyday moments such as travel nights, classes, practices, and meetings, removing the need to remember messages. The system sends automated reassurance to selected connections when a user reaches a destination. One million users activated Home Safe notifications in the past six months. Alerts are only sent to friends a user chooses to share location with, and Snap Map location sharing is off by default. One-time alerts expire once sent or after 24 hours.
