XanderSt/Shutterstock.com Changing your “My Eyes Only” password in Snapchat is as easy as entering your current password and then choosing a new one. Here’s how to do that in Snapchat on your iPhone or Android phone. Note: You must know your current “My Eye Only” password to change it without deleting everything. If you forgot your current password, you will have to reset the password, which erases all your “My Eyes Only” content. Change the My Eyes Only Passcode on Snapchat Start the password change process by launching the Snapchat app on your iPhone or Android phone. In Snapchat, access “Memories” by swiping up on the camera screen. On the “Memories” page, in the tabs list at the top, tap the “My Eyes Only” tab. On the “My Eyes Only” tab, in the lower-right corner, tap “Options.” You will see an “Options” menu. To change your password, tap the “Change Passcode” option. If you can’t recall your password and need to reset it, tap “Forgot Passcode” and follow the instructions. Remember that resetting instead of changing the password deletes all your “My Eyes Only” content. You will see an “Enter Current Passcode” screen. Here, type your current “My Eyes Only”…

Welcome back to This Week in Apps, the weekly TechCrunch series that recaps the latest in mobile OS news, mobile applications and the overall app economy. The app industry continues to grow, with a record number of downloads and consumer spending across both the iOS and Google Play stores combined in 2021, according to the latest year-end reports. App Annie says global spending across iOS, Google Play and third-party Android app stores in China grew 19% in 2021 to reach $170 billion. Downloads of apps also grew by 5% reaching 230 billion in 2021 and mobile ad spend grew 23% year-over-year to reach $295 billion.

In markets like Brazil, Indonesia and South Korea, users surpassed five hours per day in mobile apps in 2021. Apps aren’t just a way to pass idle hours, either. They can grow to become huge businesses. In 2021, 233…

Snapchat has published a new report which provides some deeper insight into the importance of online privacy, and the key concerns that users have in regards to the content that they share online. The report, based on a survey of over 13,500 people in 11 markets, uncovers some valuable considerations for both platforms and marketers, and reinforces the logic behind some of the latest social app developments, in regards to increased user control, encryption, and more. It also sheds light on how such controls – or the lack of them – can influence people’s behavior online. It’s an interesting overview – you can download Snap’s full, 28-page report here, but in this post, we’ll take a look at some of the key points. First off, Snap notes that both Snapchatters and non-Snap users are concerned about online privacy, with 81% of respondents noting that online privacy is important.

Which is the…
