Well if this happens I'm getting rid of it. Yeah I'm older and I use it. But it's great for the girlfriend and I to quickly send messages and nsfw things. Now that I think about it, I only use it because of her.

These ads will be the last straw. The stupid AI chatbot forces itself to the top of your list already, and above that, they throw in a stupid Snapchat+ ad! Oh yeah, in order to delete the AI bot as a friend, you need Snapchat+....

nsfw things

Why would you use unencrypted social media for that?

You do understand that Snapchat keeps a copy?
