From Snapchat Tumblr Blog:
We’ve enjoyed some of the ways that developers have tried to make Snapchat better. Unfortunately, some developers build services that trick Snapchatters and compromise their accounts.
We want to prevent that from happening in our community. Starting today, we will notify Snapchatters when we have detected that they may be using third-party apps and we’ll ask those Snapchatters to change their password and stop using unauthorized apps.
It is an alarming signal for intermediary app makers. It is not clear whether Snapchat provides a list of apps which users can use. However, if every single user who connects to Snapchat platform receives an alert from Snapchat official resources, then Snapchat unofficial ecosystem which moves around its apps popularity might wither.
In October, Snapchat users leaked 2,00,000 photos online after that two intermediary applications which enters into Snapchat service were compromised. In lieu of Snapchat leak as ‘The Snappening’ as Snapchat faced security issues. Snapchat celebrity bug was prominent with rumoured about celebrity’s nude photos according to Snapchat official resources which hyped Snapchat unlawful use of official API.
Snapsaved which is one of the breached services took whole responsibility for the 2,00,000 photo leaks from Snapchat platform. However, Snapsaved reveals lack of unofficial Snapchat API- which various services can instantly enter into to work with this app more securely and it is a clear factor which puts Snapchat user’s privacy at a risk.
Snapchat focus on to close down intermediary apps which affects its users. There is a hype rumor that some interesting launch will introduce soon.
