Created with the use of "Actionmojis" - the next generation of Bitmoji - the new Snap Map will give your friends a better idea of what you're doing through images you share, like when you're at the beach, waiting at the airport, shopping, and more. No, it's not the kind of map that's going to give you directions or point you to the closest sushi bar. Tapping into the community feel of Snapchat, the Snap Map allows users to not only see what their friends are doing, but where in the world they're doing it.

The algorithm considers where you are, what you’ve tagged or favorited already, and where your friends and other Snapchatters have visited.

Users can log their favorite spots, send them to friends, and find recommendations. Today, Snapchat is starting to roll out the My Places feature on its Snap Map, which connects users with over 30 million businesses.
