How to Make a Public Profile on Snapchat
Snapchat is an instant message application based on exchanging pictures or videos also known as snaps. Every single user will have their own profiles that they can edit and customize. However, there are several other profiles, such as Friendship Profiles, Group Profiles, and Public Profiles. Public Profiles are for content creators that want to share their snaps and stories with their fans rather than only friends. In this article, we will learn about how to make Public Profile on Snapchat.
