*F I N A L L Y* a youtuber with a humongous ass platform who speaks on the android vs iOS optimization issues when it comes to Snapchat (speaking as the android user I am, of course). endless props marques, hats off. _imo same thing happens with instagram stories/live/rewind all that 24h only stuff_
...and this is why I use Instagram (and Twitter) far more than Snapchat. Android users like me are getting shortchanged. I have a Pixel 2 XL, and even with the Visual Core chip, it still could be better if the app we're up to snuff.
It's better now on my OnePlus 7 Pro, they mainly prioritize iPhone becuase more iPhone users use it, plain and simple. But things like Facebook work REALLY well with Android... Because more Android users use it. Nothing about the acually phones and how alot of Apple users (not all) say it's "shitty and laggy". The last time it was laggy was in 2013 when the first touch screen Androids came out... But it was the same at first for EVERYONE, even Apple since it was so new at the time!
This is the literal reason for why my generation thinks android cameras suck No like there is an actual snap lens called "Android Quality" witch makes your pic 20 pixels
The update is trash I added ppl from my school that I don’t like to make them feel better and instead of my streak friends at the top of my list there’s those friends and their stories that I’m not interested in at all 🙄
chimaera41 actually he's not. The real problem is that the subscribed content is almost hidden now. That's like instagram killing it's core content that you subscribed to and only showing discovery. It's inexplicably stupid. Snapchat was surviving despite number sellouts who failed to appreciate the intimacy value of snapchat but this feels like a snapchat suicide. It's like they urinated on everything and proudly asked their users to gobble it up. It's incredibly tonedeaf. Remember when ray william johsson ended his show for a moment and the 10m audience never returned. If they don't change back instantly this is it.
Aida Amore Do this: Delete the app Redownload the app Type in your username and click forgot password Change your password Log back in And it will go back
That's how I started using it. I made a profile years ago but never used it until a girl started sending me nudes. Now I actually look at to see what people post.
Next? Dear Google / Android. Tell em how we want one messaging app instead of Hangouts, Messages, Allo, and Duo. Why Twitter mention sound has to be bound with tweeting sound? Why the notification bar now cannot be overlayed by other apps? Pretty sure there's still much more, please add your thoughts by replying ro this and click like so MKBHD can see and voice our opinion to them.
yourrgb Official I think you have this issues, because you haven't dedicated the right amount of time to customize your notifications. And you don't have to keep every app for everything.
buttfacemonkey can you tell me how? I set my mention to anyone, but every mention I'm getting gives no sound. Unless I went to app info, notification and turn on make sound for 'related to you and your tweets'.
Alex Gutierrez I don't keep all those apps. If Google already made one good messaging app, people won't have to install whatsapp etc. Another point of view, iMessage is so good that ios users won't use android just cause android has no good iMessage competitors.
I’m an IOS user but I think it is really annoying and unfair if it’s not as good, even if the android is a lot better than the iPhone, the iPhone will still look better :(
Tim Paik the new snapchat update is a fucking joke. It makes me want the old interface even though that was horeshit. Now snaps aren’t in chronological order, they’re scattered all over the place...
Thank you for calling them out on the android optimization issues. It's been like this since forever! If Instagram can do it like they do with stories, then snapchat can do it.
Snapchat is not dead. They'll react to what's going on in the market and come back with full force. Also, current power user's of SC should give their fanbase an incentive to continue using SC. It can simply start as using their stories as a medium of exclusivity for their content or whatever.
Snapchat’s new update actually boosted discovery.... but only for celebrities. If you look on the new discover tab, you will start to see stories of celebrities Snapchat’s that you aren’t “subscribed” to. Having said that, I think it’s incredibly annoying that I know see post Malone hitting a blunt or some shit when I didn’t sign up for it. The alternate bad side to the update is that less people now see your personal story as they are mixed in with the direct sending page, burying some stories the bottom never to be seen.
Every modern Android OS and even slightly older ones have standardized Camera APIs tho which every app developer can easily use. There's no excuse for Snapchat to not use this API and instead trying to implement their own crap.
The problem is that version 2 of the camera API (the one that lets you take better photos) was released with Lollipop. Roughly half of all Android devices are still pre-lollipop, which means half of Android users will be unaffected if Snapchat supports the new API. That being said, it's still astonishing that such a big company can't put the RnD into supporting both apis.
I wouldn't say Snapchat Android OS developers are lazy. It's just they might not fully realize that Android isn't one size fits all. Just like Marques said Snapchat and other major apps are fixated towards the 2-3 iPhones. And that's REALLY easy to work with. However, Snapchat simply hasn't converted yet. It's a simple update that they could work on doing, but hey I'm not sure where their priorities are at. Just my thought on the matter.
LimitedWard "Roughly half of all Android devices are still pre-lollipop", Nope!. 82.3% are on lollipop and above. Lollipop 24.6%, Marshmallow 28.1%, Nougat 28.5%, Oreo 1.1%
I personally think streaks are one of the dumbest concept and things to ever exist in the modern world, like they don't harm or cause anything bad, but it's one of the most unnecessary things ever and people use it to think they're cool for it
I feel like Snapchat is good for messing about with friends and sharing what you are up to even if the pictures and videos are terrible, where as instagram is looked upon to be more professional and the pictures should be better quality and unique, and the aim is to get lots of followers and likes on your pictures, where as Snapchat is for more personal and mediocar things.
I agree. When I use snap its not about likes or popularity, but fun/intimate snapshots of daily life. I feel that Instagram is becoming more similar to Facebook in a lot of ways, and I guess that'd make sense since Facebook owns it.
The camera quality isn't the only bad thing, but the app causes some serious lag on Android, drains a ton of battery, and is just super buggy and broken.
It drains a fucking insane amount of battery because the camera is always on when using the app. So even when chatting with someone it's still using the camera. It's fucking retarded!!
Yea, and the filters have latency and tracking issues on Android. It feels like a sticker trying to find your follow your face with a 2 second delay and I use a Galaxy Edge. Honestly unusable for Android users.
I have an S8 Plus and I notice the quality difference between Iphone and Android on Snapchat, but I totally agree with you. The top end Android phones do deserve more attention from snap because if we pay good money for a nice camera on a high end device, we should get the same high quality through Snapchat.
No don’t get me wrong. I have an iPhone 8 Plus. But I have friends with a $929 Samsung galaxy note 8. The note 8 in some ways is better than the new iPhone X. I believe the s8 and the note 8 should have a camera in Snapchat and not just a screen grab. To prove my point take the pixel 2. This is an android phone, but yet it uses a actual camera, not a screen grab. This goes to show you that Snapchat developers are pulling favorites toward iPhone users even though android users with high end phones deserve the respect they give us. Even Marques brown knows because his favorite phone is the pixel 2.
Well said. I think that even the idea of simple messaging and sharing of individual videos is served well enough by Instagram now too that Snapchat doesn't need to exist for that purpose either.
I disagree with some of your points because for me I don’t want to be discovering creators on Snapchat, I can do that on Instagram. I want to use Snapchat to talk to my actual friends and view their stories. The new update completely hinges on discovery, that’s why everyone hates it. The majority of its users are not interested in that in the slightest on Snapchat.
Agreed. I think Instagram is where most people go to discover or find new pages and people. And Snapchat is more personal for friends and family I don’t want to see things on there from people I didn’t add
I don't want to discover on Snapchat. I just wanna connect with my friends people I know. So it's fine if they don't support creators, it's not that kind of platform.
Maybe watch the video before posting a comment. He said that he doesn't have the update on any of his devices but other people are bad-mouthing it. What more do you want? Should he make stuff up?
wunnell ....First of all, I have no idea why you're so triggered. I did watch the video, I watched all of it. I was busy doing other things while listening to him talk. And what I said, was I thought there would be MORE about it. Jesus Christ, you guys are annoying.
Just a daily reminder that all Android phones have shared APIs for talking to the camera. You don't need to rewrite your backend for every phone on the planet, that would be ridiculous.
DJ - Rocket Man - you obviously never experienced an android flagship, both platforms are amazing and have their advantages and disadvantages, you can't hate the platform as a whole for those idiotic reasons
Snapchat should see this video and learn from it. Tons of people still use the Snapchat and they can come a long way and towards improvement by implementing better support for their Android devices as the Android user base is pretty high. Let's face it, Instagram and Facebook stories are going to be taken over completely unless Snapchat steps up their game and fix these issues. Especially fixing the photo quality, like how MKBHD has highlighted here. Still a big believer in Snapchat, hopefully they'll strive to improve.
I 100% agree with this. A lot of people are saying in the comments that Snapchat is going to end up dying out. I don't believe that's going to happen right now. SC can easily compete with Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc. I'm looking forward to what SC has up their sleeves this year and I want to see things work for the better. Especially with Android.
Jacob Eden it is server-side not client-side, I use a VPN (virtual private network) on my phone and when the VPN is on I have the update and when it's off I don't. Basically it's applied to your network not your phone
JJ J probably won’t help... I intentionally didn’t update mine because I saw how bad it was from a friend and then the next day I woke up with the update installed
Adam Harvey They redesigned the conversation and stories pages they combined them and now it looks all cluttered and messy some people might like it but I absolutely hate it I got the update last night and I haven’t used sc since then
I happen to like it. Seeing Stories on that page makes me more inclined to actually look at them, instead of going to an entirely different screen to see them.
Don’t forget that Snapchat only lets you to be logged into one device at a time I always have to sign back into my Snapchat when I use my XperiaPremium and my iPhone X each time I go into the app on the other phone it’s signs out the other one and requires me to sign into the current phone I’m trying to use which I guess I could just use one phone but since I carry both with me I like to not have to think about which phone I’m signed into
Louis Asbery if you can’t read a run on sentence you should probably go back to school last I checked Siri and google don’t add punctuation and it’s fucking RUclips who gives a shit go troll somewhere else
@@lightscameras4166 I've actually noticed more of my friends are switching over to Android phones now, I made the switch from iOS to Android a little over a year ago. I think the reason Snapchat only cares about iOS is because it's easier to optimize, despite that the majority of the global population who own smartphones own Androids. iPhones are really only extremely popular in America, there were far more people using Androids that I noted while on Christmas vacation in Germany, France, and Belgium.

Yep! MKBHD missed the point of what Snapchat is about.
Stop being lazy and stop screengrabbing the camera view on android
Bnf
So that means I quality is not bad
@@editsbytiyanaaa4389 no it means it's bad
The camera quality isn't the only bad thing, but the app causes some serious lag on Android, drains a ton of battery, and is just super buggy and broken.
JustNaturallyBoss it drains my iPhone Battery too, and causes those same lag issues on my friend’s 6
It drains a fucking insane amount of battery because the camera is always on when using the app. So even when chatting with someone it's still using the camera. It's fucking retarded!!
Yes!!
Yea, and the filters have latency and tracking issues on Android. It feels like a sticker trying to find your follow your face with a 2 second delay and I use a Galaxy Edge. Honestly unusable for Android users.
JustNaturallyBoss It completely bricked my android
The update is AWFUL!!!
WHITEPERSUAS1ON no its not
What different about it?
J. Rose impossible to navigate to Stories, also your recent snaps got integrated with stories so you can’t really watch specific stories
WHITEPERSUAS1ON Wow that's really dumb
I have an S8 Plus and I notice the quality difference between Iphone and Android on Snapchat, but I totally agree with you. The top end Android phones do deserve more attention from snap because if we pay good money for a nice camera on a high end device, we should get the same high quality through Snapchat.
MrSteelCurtain yeah new android phones with good cameras should be able to use the actual camera and not the screengrab
You pay good money for a good camera but there is not enough S8 plus in the world to get more attention than now from the devs
Devs of Snapchat don't have to satisfy you because you bought an android.
No don’t get me wrong. I have an iPhone 8 Plus. But I have friends with a $929 Samsung galaxy note 8. The note 8 in some ways is better than the new iPhone X. I believe the s8 and the note 8 should have a camera in Snapchat and not just a screen grab. To prove my point take the pixel 2. This is an android phone, but yet it uses a actual camera, not a screen grab. This goes to show you that Snapchat developers are pulling favorites toward iPhone users even though android users with high end phones deserve the respect they give us. Even Marques brown knows because his favorite phone is the pixel 2.
Elijah ojo yeah but there is still alot more iPhone users... each iPhones is sold 10x more than any samsung
Great t-shirt choice 😂
Or Elon Musk is gonna come out with his own version of SnapChat called TeslaSpaceXChat
Got that right! We'll all be watching hitting up Starman in space!
UnPhayzable the funny thing is that sounds like something Elon would actually do
No, just no.....
The BoringChat Company
Hi Jack's suggestion sounds quite a bit better imo. Elon would probably be more likely to call it BoringChat.
the new update is absolute trash
FreddyA frfr
FACTS
the UI is the worst thing I've ever seen in my life
It's infinitely better than the old version. I fucking hate tabloids. Fuck the old snapchat.
Can't they at least optimize it for Samsung phone
Samsung has to optimize their own camera first lol
@@GOATGamingAndSports idk what u talking about 😂
Xander Oerlemans you can’t comprehend? I’m saying Samsung cameras are pure shit
@@GOATGamingAndSports Then you haven't used a samsung 😂 or did you use the a5 2016 🤣
Xander Oerlemans dumbass nigga I’m typing this off of a Note 8 as we speak so what you on about
Let the ghost die. Uninstall it, if you have to. It's the only way for other users to find the stories you meant them to see.
I love the reference
Jackson solo
Great reference.
And now they have completely ruined their UI
Thanks SnapChat!!!
Well said. I think that even the idea of simple messaging and sharing of individual videos is served well enough by Instagram now too that Snapchat doesn't need to exist for that purpose either.
2 years later and it just changed.
I disagree with some of your points because for me I don’t want to be discovering creators on Snapchat, I can do that on Instagram. I want to use Snapchat to talk to my actual friends and view their stories. The new update completely hinges on discovery, that’s why everyone hates it. The majority of its users are not interested in that in the slightest on Snapchat.
geese geese That's why he concluded that snap should change to be more personalized
Exactly i do not want to “discover” other creators on Snapchat. It seems too impersonal. I hate this new update it makes everything look so messy
agreed. snapchat does what the old Instagram did and Instagram does what the old Facebook did and Facebook now is only a fake news hub
Agreed. I think Instagram is where most people go to discover or find new pages and people. And Snapchat is more personal for friends and family I don’t want to see things on there from people I didn’t add
Most accurate statement about the update till date
uninstalling my 420MB SNAPCHAT....
Abdulhafid mine is 0.99gb
try 6.34GB lol
718mb here yikes
Mines like 5-7 gb
You can easily get rid of all of that extra data by just going to settings and clearing your cache. It's not hard and you can still use it...
Yeah...Snapchat is dead
Dear MKBHD fans...
Dislike my latest video
Goober and Buddy What happened?
2 years later and still bad :/
Fī Føū X is it?
I was wondering if it's good on the new top tier phones like OnePlus 8 or Samsung s20
@@yup7452 s20 snapchat camera is garbage
@@huzzich so Snapchat really is shit on every device then lol except for iOS obviously
I was always confused why my camera always looked like 2012 on snapchat. I just found out today this is why it looks so ass
Finally someone speaks up, and when Marques speaks, it's always an influential one!
I don't want to discover on Snapchat. I just wanna connect with my friends people I know. So it's fine if they don't support creators, it's not that kind of platform.
I thought you was finna talk about the new update. Can we talk about how terrible it is? 😂
I thought the same thing
Maybe watch the video before posting a comment. He said that he doesn't have the update on any of his devices but other people are bad-mouthing it. What more do you want? Should he make stuff up?
wunnell ....First of all, I have no idea why you're so triggered. I did watch the video, I watched all of it. I was busy doing other things while listening to him talk. And what I said, was I thought there would be MORE about it. Jesus Christ, you guys are annoying.
itsmyayall if he doesn't have the update how could he talk more about it? Lol
dirty don omg that's why he said he THOUGHT he was!!!! So did I.
2 years later & nothing had changed
Just a daily reminder that all Android phones have shared APIs for talking to the camera. You don't need to rewrite your backend for every phone on the planet, that would be ridiculous.
Alexander Bus THIS! thank you, just some bad programming from Snapchat
DJ - Rocket Man - please, don't compare iPhones to androids. Apple is ahead in every way
Lol the only thing is apple good at is fooling it's buyers . You can get the same thing in androids for almost a grand less.
DJ - Rocket Man - you obviously never experienced an android flagship, both platforms are amazing and have their advantages and disadvantages, you can't hate the platform as a whole for those idiotic reasons
iPhone vs. Android fight? What is this, 2014?
Snapchat is for personal use, Instagram is a professional portfolio.
"professional"
“If you can’t beat ‘em, copy ‘em till you do”
-Instagram
Snapchats not designed as a content creator app, it’s a social media app for friends, it’s a nudes app..
Sam Batchelor lol
No it’s not nudes are gross....
Matthew D alright pal whatever you say 😉
Matthew D what are you? 8?
Snapchat should see this video and learn from it.
Tons of people still use the Snapchat and they can come a long way and towards improvement by implementing better support for their Android devices as the Android user base is pretty high.
Let's face it, Instagram and Facebook stories are going to be taken over completely unless Snapchat steps up their game and fix these issues. Especially fixing the photo quality, like how MKBHD has highlighted here.
Still a big believer in Snapchat, hopefully they'll strive to improve.
I 100% agree with this. A lot of people are saying in the comments that Snapchat is going to end up dying out. I don't believe that's going to happen right now. SC can easily compete with Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc. I'm looking forward to what SC has up their sleeves this year and I want to see things work for the better. Especially with Android.
Man, that new Snap is uugly! Turning off auto updates
JJ J Funny thing is, it's not on the phones end, they apply it to your account/network.
I never updated but I got the new layout??
Jacob Eden it is server-side not client-side, I use a VPN (virtual private network) on my phone and when the VPN is on I have the update and when it's off I don't. Basically it's applied to your network not your phone
I thought this was going to be a rant on the crappy update
JJ J probably won’t help... I intentionally didn’t update mine because I saw how bad it was from a friend and then the next day I woke up with the update installed
2 years later... nothing has changed
nice t shirt for leaving snapchat
i kinda like the fact that snapchat doesn't have a discover page i thought that's the point of the ghost
The point of the ghost is to emphasise the fact that your messages and snaps and also stories disappear
I dont want to see other people on snapchat i want to see the people i added on snapchat
Snapshit
Wjkoenhd industrieS I back this
Wjkoenhd industrieS shitsnap
Got 'em
Wjkoenhd industrieS no
Say no more
2 years later things still haven't changed
Snapchat’s newest update is complete trash
ADX8 Why?
Adam Harvey They redesigned the conversation and stories pages they combined them and now it looks all cluttered and messy some people might like it but I absolutely hate it I got the update last night and I haven’t used sc since then
I happen to like it. Seeing Stories on that page makes me more inclined to actually look at them, instead of going to an entirely different screen to see them.
R.I.P SNAPCHAT...🤣🤣
RIP Snapchat 2011-2018
Don’t forget that Snapchat only lets you to be logged into one device at a time I always have to sign back into my Snapchat when I use my XperiaPremium and my iPhone X each time I go into the app on the other phone it’s signs out the other one and requires me to sign into the current phone I’m trying to use which I guess I could just use one phone but since I carry both with me I like to not have to think about which phone I’m signed into
Louis Asbery didn't know we were posting for grades. Is it really necessary?
Louis Asbery if you can’t read a run on sentence you should probably go back to school last I checked Siri and google don’t add punctuation and it’s fucking RUclips who gives a shit go troll somewhere else
Dawn and who said I was complaining just mentioned a simple update they could do to make things more convenient for its users
Just curious out of the people browsing comments, who still used Snapchat ???
where is danny black I do. I have an android phone so haven't updated it
I use it all the time to send various images to and joke around with my friends and family. It’s what the app was originally made for, after all.
cheezdoodle96 instasnap is still superior even in that regard
cheezdoodle96
it was made to send nudes and stuff. That's why Snapchat's only lasts 10 seconds and warn you if someone screenshots 🙂
Jj ru Snap&Fuck is superior name
2 years later, nothing has changed
I uninstalled my Snapchat after watching this video , and then my phone became 20% faster than it was before thanx MKBHD
Wait he is 24 😱🤯💀

I'm leaving my snapchat too since they really don't care for android users at all.
Adel AlMajed there is more iOS users
@@dylanpower1438 clearly an American 😂😂
@@androwindo I'm American, and I can confirm that's a fact.
@@gymsserver2970 But really why is that, isn't the preference slowly shifting to amdroid now?
@@lightscameras4166 I've actually noticed more of my friends are switching over to Android phones now, I made the switch from iOS to Android a little over a year ago. I think the reason Snapchat only cares about iOS is because it's easier to optimize, despite that the majority of the global population who own smartphones own Androids. iPhones are really only extremely popular in America, there were far more people using Androids that I noted while on Christmas vacation in Germany, France, and Belgium.
