    After taking a video or image on the Android version of the Snapchat application, there's an option in the lower-left of the screen that allows it to be saved to the phone or tablet's gallery.

To screenshot the display, it's normally a case of pressing the power and volume buttons simultaneously.

  • What are the permissions requested by Snapchat for Android?

    On first-time install, Android applications will routinely asks for hardware permissions on a device.
