How to Make a Long Video on Snapchat

Published in Snapchat Video 1 min read

Making a long video on Snapchat is simple using the "Long Snap" feature. Essentially, you just need to keep recording by holding down the camera button.

Using the Long Snap Feature

Snapchat's Long Snap feature allows you to capture continuous video Snaps beyond the standard short limit. Here's how to do it:

  1. Open Snapchat: Launch the Snapchat application on your device.
  2. Access the Camera: Go to the main Camera screen.
  3. Start Recording: Press and hold the Camera button 🔘 located at the bottom center of the screen.
  4. Keep Holding: Keep holding the Camera button down for as long as you want the video to continue. The recording will keep going as long as your finger is on the button (up to a certain maximum duration).
  5. Finish Recording: Release the Camera button when you are finished recording your long video.

Editing Your Long Snap

Once you release the button, your recorded Long Snap will appear at the bottom of the Camera screen. From there, you can:

  • Edit it.
  • Add Filters.
  • Use other Creative Tools like stickers, text, drawings, etc.

This makes it easy to personalize your longer video content before sending it to friends or adding it to your story.
