Part 1: What is Snapchat Location Filter?

A Snapchat location filter also known as a Geofilter allows Snapchat to use your current location and display it on a photo or video. There are many Snapchat location filters that users can choose from to share their location with their friends.

These filters only work when Snapchat has access to your location and your location is automatically detected and displayed on your snaps through location filters. Keep in mind that the location filter is not to be confused with Snapchat lenses which are entertaining effects that are applied before capturing a snap. You can only apply a Snapchat location filter after you have captured a photo or video.

Part 2: How to Add Location on Snapchat Filter

Adding your location through a Snapchat filter requires some initial setup because these filters aren't enabled by default. To enable Snapchat filters you have to follow these simple steps:

Step 1. Launch the Snapchat app and tap on your profile icon.

Step 2. Now tap the settings icon and go to the Manage option.

Step 3. Turn on the toggle switch next to the Filters setting.

Note: You will also have to provide location access to Snapchat by going to Settings>Apps>Snapchat>App Permissions and enabling location access.

Once you have setup the Snapchat location filter you can follow these steps to add location to your snaps:

Step 1. Capture a photo or record a video on Snapchat and wait for the preview to appear.

Step 2. Now swipe the image or the video preview to go through available filters until you find location filters.

Step 3. Tap the send button to send the snap with the location filter applied to it.

Note: In some cases, you may not be able to find any location filters for your area because there aren't any available for your location. In this case, you can either move to a different area to find location filters or you can try creating a location filter yourself.
