This not only makes the process of creating Snaps and Snapchat Stories more streamlined, but it also creates<strong> cool-looking custom stickers <\/strong>for the links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The addition of this unique feature shows that <strong>link-sharing <\/strong>doesn\u2019t have to be bothersome and that it can become a visual treat, too. YouTube already has <strong>many integrations with other apps<\/strong> for content-sharing but this improvement in its capabilities makes it an even worthwhile app to have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The previous method of sharing YouTube links on Snapchat was by <strong>manually copy-pasting<\/strong> them from the Share button. With the new feature, however, you can now simply <strong>tap a button<\/strong> to immediately be <strong>redirected to your Snapchat app. <\/strong>It will automatically open up the Snapchat Camera tool so you can quickly start creating a <strong>Snap<\/strong> or a <strong>Snapchat Story<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The great thing about this update is that the copied link will be converted into a <strong>custom-generated sticker<\/strong> that shows the <strong>video\u2019s thumbnail and title<\/strong>. With this, you can paste it into your work and even have full access to the <strong>Snapchat Creative Tools<\/strong>. This feature is available on both YouTube Android and YouTube iOS\u2014but you definitely need both YouTube and Snapchat apps for it to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To use it, open the YouTube video you want, tap the \u201c<strong>Share<\/strong>\u201d button, and tap the <strong>Snapchat icon<\/strong>. Then, create an original Snap with its automated sticker. Once posted, your followers can tap on the sticker and it\u2019ll redirect them to the video. This is a great way to not only recommend content but also promote videos\u2014and potentially <a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.en.softonic.com\/articles\/youtube-algorithm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">influence their YouTube algorithm<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Image credit: Snap Newsroom<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To make video link-sharing much easier for Snapchat users, Snapchat has recently launched an integration feature with the YouTube mobile app that lets you directly share YouTube videos to Snapchat Camera.
