Aatif·December 10, 2014

Despite having suffered from some controversy over time, the app continues to be used by masses beyond measure on the iPhone. With iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus both having larger screens, the app, despite its continued usage, suffered from some aesthetic ugliness since it had not been fully optimized to take advantage of the larger display real estate on the new devices.

Snapchat's little security snafu has made quite the splash over the last day or two. The photo-based social messaging service has grown so popular that even mainstream media outlets have been frothing at the mouth about the hack that has seen 4.6 million users have their usernames and mobile phone numbers stolen and subsequently leaked on the Internet.

It's never great to start off the beginning of a new year shrouded in controversy and having to deal with a public relations nightmare, but that's exactly the position which Snapchat finds itself in.
