Snapchatters
Ephemeral photo senders
Snapchatters are users of Snapchat, the social media app known for disappearing photos and videos.
The term appears in the app itself and in marketing contexts: Snapchatters send over 4 billion snaps daily.
It functions like "users" or "subscribers" but with brand-specific flair.
