How to Extend an Image in Snapchat

Keeping up with the AI trend and a whole new set of cool features that AI brings to image manipulation, Snapchat has added another new feature, the ability to extend snaps using AI. This feature can help you zoom out of photos and extend the photo using AI. So, if you discard Snaps because they’re too close to the camera or wish there was more background in an image, this is the perfect feature for you. Here’s how you can use it on Snapchat.

Can you extend landscape images using Snapchat?

Yes, you can use Snapchat to extend landscape images. However, the results can vastly vary. The AI can sometimes extend the images without it being noticeable, while in some cases, the final image can be a bit wonky. We recommend you try it to see if the final image works for you. Remember that the Extend feature is only available when the image is zoomed in to fit the portrait view. However, once you use this option to extend the image, you can zoom out and view the entire landscape image.

Here are a few examples from our testing.

We hope this post helped you get familiar with the new Extend feature in Snapchat and how you can use it to your advantage. If you face any issues or have more questions, feel free to reach out to us using the comments below.
