In an effort to make users happier with the newly redesigned Snapchat the company has been trying to make new updates to the app. Some users have struggled to adjust to the app, which has even impacted Snap financially.
Users have struggled to find their friends in the app, as well as the stories and content they actually want to see. They even started a petition to ask the company to change the app back to how it was before the redesign.
Snapchat users now have a "subscriptions" portion in their app. When users open up the Snapchat app and either swipe right or tap the "Discover" button in the bottom right corner, they open up Discover.
This is where a user's friends are listed; it's also where their subscriptions and the "for you" section is located for users. Those subscriptions are stories either from specific people or content creators on the app that users have more or less followed on Snapchat.
People and creators that users subscribe to appear under friends but above the "for you" portion of Discover for users.
