Unfortunately, Apple Watch users cannot utilize Snapchat. The Snapchat app’s creator, Snap Inc., has not formally made the Watch OS-compatible version available.

The obvious cause of this might be that Snapchat needs access to the camera in order to take pictures and videos that can be shared with friends, and the Apple Watch lacks a built-in camera.

We can add some Snapchat functionality to Apple Watch using this technique. The Apple Watch should, however, be able to handle WebKit or Internet browsing.

How to take Snapchat photos using Apple Watch?

There is a brilliant hack that allows you to use your Apple Watch as a remote control to capture Snapchat pictures. Despite the fact that Snapchat cannot be downloaded to Apple Watch, the device can be used to control Snapchat.
It’s possible that the most recent Watch OS versions won’t support this Snapchat trick, which was extremely popular back in 2015. It’s okay to check to see if the trick still works for you, though.

  1. Launch the Snapchat app on your iPhone and navigate to Camera mode.
  2. Position the phone how you want it to take the shot.
  3. Now, make sure your Apple Watch is on the default watch face screen.
  4. Swipe upwards to open up the Music glance.
  5. When you’re ready to take the snap, rotate the Digital Crown button. Note, you simply have to rotate the Crown and not push it to take the picture.

Since Snapchat allows you to utilize the volume buttons on your iPhone to capture images, adjusting the volume on your Apple Watch has the same effect as pressing a volume button on your iPhone. As a result, it enables Apple Watch users to take Snapchat photos.
