Headline of The day!

Snapchat adds emoji to show you who your best friends are

Snapchat used to feature a "best friends" list that displayed the people you regularly shared the most photos and videos with to both you and the world. The app canned this feature in a recent update, but it's now replaced it with another way to indicate your closest friends — emoji. Snapchat now uses a series of hearts, flames, and tiny yellow faces to show when you get a message from your best friend, your best friend's best friend, and others.
In a bid to explain the new and somewhat complex system, Snapchat sensibly illustrates it using pictures of Beyoncé. Receive a snap from the person you message the most, and if they are also your best friend, you'll see a heart. If your friend sends you the highest percentage of their snaps, but you have another best friend, you'll see a side-eyed smirk. If you get a snap from a person who has your best friend as their best friend too, you'll see a grimace. Other emoji are detailed inside the app itself, the only place the silent update was officially announced.

Unlike the original "best friends" list, Snapchat's new emoji friendship brackets aren't public, to the annoyance of users who kept tabs on friends and significant others by seeing who they were snapping with. Another new bracket has been introduced with this update, too — friends you haven't snapped with in a while will fall under the "Needs Love" banner, a bid to get you snapping with acquaintances to turn your buddy into a BFF, scoring Snapchat more engaged users along the way. The new update also brings a few technical changes to the wildly popular app, including a new low-light mode for your phone's camera, accessible by pressing a moon icon that now shows up at the top of the screen.
