Apple just killed its Snapchat competitor

Apple Discontinues Support for Clips App

Apple has announced that it will no longer provide updates for its Clips app, effectively ending its competition with Snapchat.

The app has been removed from the App Store as of October 10, but existing users can continue to use it. However, new users are no longer able to download it, and those who have previously downloaded it can still redownload it.

Apple says to save any videos you want to keep as there's no guarantee they'll stick around if the app stops working.

The demise of Clips is a testament to Snapchat's dominance in the market, with Instagram Stories also struggling to keep up. Users are advised to save their videos as future iOS updates may cause the app to stop working, and Apple will not provide support to fix any issues.
