How to Create Your Own Snapchat Filters

Snapchat filters are a fun way to alter the videos and images you create in Snapchat. Maybe you want rainbows to pour out of your mouth when you open it, or maybe you want to add cat ears on you and your friends. There are many different free filters on Snapchat and you can create your own! Since the app does not feature filter-creation, this How.com.vn teaches you how to make Snapchat filters by using a web browser computer.

Steps

  1. How.com.vn English: Step 1 Go to https://create.snapchat.com....
    Go to https://create.snapchat.com. You can use any web browser to make your own Snapchat filters. Popular ones include Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
    • The filter editor will load with a preview of what your filter will look like on a phone.
    • On the left side of the page, you'll see templates that you can use.
    • On the right side of the page, you can change editing tools between Color, Text, and Elements.
  2. How.com.vn English: Step 2 Design your filter.
    You can use a template then add color, text, and elements like Bitmoji to your filter.
    • If you decide to upload an image from your computer, the max file size you can upload is 300KB with a recommended resolution of 72 DPI. It should be 1080px wide and 2340px high and saved in a PNG format with a transparent background.[1]

    You have to create a geofence around the area where you want your filter to be available. Only Snapchatters in the geofence will be able to apply the filter to their Snaps.
    • Use the search bar to enter a location and outline the geofenced area.

    • Make sure the information under "Order Summary" is correct before continuing. If not, navigate back to the areas you want to change.

    If you haven't read the Privacy Policy or Terms of Service as well as the Custom Creative Tool Terms and Conditions, do that before checking the box and continuing.
