Getting addicted to this app is very easy if your friends are also using it. Once you have four or five people who are sharing their day to day stories (or snaps) with you, you would find yourself doing the same. The SnapChat stories, that is basically the videos or photos that you share with other people, disappear after every twenty four hours. So it is a self-destruct data kind of app. This motivates people to make a new snap everyday.
