Cheaters, sexters and ugly selfie fans can rejoice.
Snapchat, the app that self-destructs photos and messages, unveiled text
messaging and video chat features today that will allow users to carry
on seamless conversations with friends who are using the app at the same
time.
Many users had previously sent multiple videos and photos back and forth
to carry on a conversation. The new features work by eliminating the
piece mill process and giving users the full attention of their friends
who are also on the app.

In order to keep the live video option open, users will have to hold
down a button in the same way they do when they see a snap. Move your
finger, and the video capability will stop, staying true to the fleeting
nature of Snapchat.
And instead of sending information through character-limiting photo
captions, users can now save important information from their instant
messaging conversations, such as party plans, homework answers, and
phone numbers. When users leave the chat screen, all of the other
information will disappear.
