Just like TikTok or Instagram's Reels, users can choose from creative tools like filters, stickers, text, audio and others while creating a video on Spotlight. According to Snapchat, the users will come across these videos on their personalised feed that will be curated based on users' viewing habits. To restrict abusive and harmful comments, Snapchat has announced that these short videos will not be open to public comments.

To create a video, all you need to do is open the app on the phone and create a video using the in-app camera. Once done, add the desired music, stickers, filters and then tap on the "Send To" option on the bottom and share it with your friends or upload it on "My Story".
