In an AR and automotive development, Hyundai has developed an AR Lens bringing its Kona to Snapchat. Snapchatters can now bring the car into their own space by scanning the Snapcode below or searching for the Lens via the Lens carousel. Aussie Snapchatters can then explore the car and the latest technology that Kona has to offer. Snapchat said its platform “perfectly aligns” to Kona as the fun, small SUV. “We recognise how engaged with technology the Kona audience is and how they have such an appetite for life,” Hyundai Australia product portfolio marketing manager Helen Gilmartin said. “Snapchat provides the perfect platform to encourage our audience to engage with the Hyundai Kona in a different way, while also seamlessly integrating our campaign character, The Mopster, into the AR Lens.” Snap Australia’s head of agency partnerships, Matthew Coote, added: “We are excited to work with Hyundai to bring this campaign to life. “As a platform, Snapchat has always opened to the camera, inviting people to express themselves, and be creative.“We believe that augmented reality is an extremely powerful tool not only for visual expression, but an opportunity for businesses to reach out to their target audience in an engaging way.”…

Twitch star JakeNBakeLIVE is well known for his IRL streams where he tours the world, ranging from adventures in Japan to his home in LA. Now, he’s found a way to bring the virtual world into the real one. VRChat is home to many interesting characters, some of which have become good friends with JakeNBake, such as fellow streamer Yishai. During an April 21 broadcast, the IRL entertainer combined VR with his car stream in a genre-bending twist. Surprising his viewers, JakeNBake brought his virtual friend into his car to sit with him in the front seat – and the result was actually pretty amazing. “Yishai, go ahead and make yourself comfy in the seat,” he said as his VR companion got settled.  Read More: Dave Portnoy baffled by Dixie D’Amelio’s “rookie” pizza review Eventually, after some back and forth discussion, the two started jamming out to Dr Disrespect’s hit Gillette (The Best A Man Can Get) track.

PORTLAND, Ore.—A local man has been charged with federal child exploitation crimes after using various social media applications, including Snapchat and TikTok, to stalk and sexually exploit a minor victim from Australia, announced Acting U.S. Attorney Scott Erik Asphaug. Jorge Rosales, 25, of Beaverton, Oregon, has been charged by criminal complaint with sexually exploiting children, distributing and possessing child pornography, cyberstalking, and enticing a minor online. “This case demonstrates the extraordinary lengths sexual predators will go to victimize children. It also demonstrates the tenacity and reach of law enforcement when investigating these heinous crimes,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Asphaug. “I applaud the incredible investigative efforts of our domestic and international law enforcement partners to identify this defendant and see to it that his ability to victimize vulnerable children across the globe ends immediately.” “Protecting our children from predators lurking on the internet is truly a global challenge, requiring coordination with our international law enforcement partners” said Special Agent in Charge Robert Hammer, who oversees Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) operations in the Pacific Northwest. “HSI will continue to pursue online predators that exploit popular apps such as Snapchat and TikTok to lure innocent children.” According to court documents, in April 2021,…

Beast Beast does something you don’t usually see in a Sundance darling: It presents a gun-obsessive who is, at least initially, sympathetic. The film, written and directed by Danny Madden and executive produced by, among others, Alec Baldwin, tells the story of three Georgia teens whose lives intersect tragically. Shirley Chen plays a theater kid, Krista; Jose Angeles plays a skater she likes, Nito; and Will Madden, Danny Madden’s brother, plays Adam, a gun aficionado who dreams of YouTube stardom. Whatever our thoughts on guns, Adam wins us over with his modern underdog qualities: Internet commenters belittle his videos. He stumbles when trying to sound cool in his intros. He has no idea how to be an influencer. His dad urges him to give it up if he can’t monetize. Baldwin initially saw him being played by a Channing Tatum type whose good looks in real life don’t translate to Internet fame. “I was looking at a guy who was like the captain of the football team,” Baldwin told MovieMaker. “Like he like he had everything going for him. But he just had no social skills, like all the cool kids in school are leaving him in the dust in…

Snap has finally reaped the benefits of building a fully functional Android app. The company announced in its earnings report today that its user base mostly uses Android instead of iOS. That overall user base continues to grow, too. During the first quarter of 2021, Snapchat reached 280 million daily active users, an increase of 22 percent year over year. CEO Evan Spiegel called the moment Android users overtook iOS users a “critical milestone that reflects the long-term value of the investment we made to rebuild our Android application,” in his prepared remarks today. As a reminder, Snapchat originally launched only on iOS and released its first Android app in 2012. The team later spent over a year rebuilding the app to bring it up to par with its iOS counterpart. As the Android app languished, Snapchat bled Android users. It finally released the final version of that app in 2019, making the app more functional and accessible to global users. The company says its growth has also fueled it to invest in content abroad. Spiegel highlighted a Snap Original show the company launched in India in March, as well as its efforts to improve language support and feature localization.…
