Snapchat Adds Group Video Chat, Confirms User Tagging Option in Snaps

Snapchat introduces group video chat for up to 16 people, group audio chat for up to 32 people, and “Mentions” in Stories that allow users to tag friends

We designed Chat to feel less like texting and more like hanging out. That’s why when a friend opens Chat, their Bitmoji pops up to say “I’m here!” — and why your Chat conversations aren’t saved forever, by default.
Today, we’re making Chat even more fun. Now you can video chat with up to 16 of your friends at one time. Just tap the video camera icon in a Group Chat to get your friends together! Friends in the Group Chat will receive a notification inviting them to join.
How you express yourself is up to you. You can use Lenses, join only with your voice, or simply send messages that others can read while they talk. Every conversation is unique!
Group Video Chat will begin rolling out to Snapchatters globally this week.
