Snapchat had originally intended for My AI to serve as a conversational buddy, allowing users to pose general inquiries and engage in friendly chatter. Regrettably, the chatbot didn’t quite catch on, with users struggling to see its usefulness. As a result, Snapchat has opted to incorporate new features into My AI, including the ability to establish countdown timers and set reminders, which will hopefully lend a sense of productivity to the bot.
On Wednesday, the company made an announcement stating that users can now easily ask the chatbot to set reminders for tasks or countdowns. By simply entering the command, the user’s reminder or countdown will promptly commence, as shown in the accompanying screenshot.

The new feature is designed to assist users in initiating their assignments and departing from the app, as well as prompting them to remember important tasks or errands. The introduction of this function is expected to entice a greater number of individuals to utilize the chatbot, as it is automatically enabled and available to all Snapchat users worldwide.
In addition to Bitmoji reactions, Snapchat has integrated emoji reactions to respond to messages and Snaps. To utilize this feature, simply press and hold on a message to reveal your standard set of Bitmoji reactions, along with a newly added plus icon. Select the plus icon to access a range of emojis to react with.
Snapchat users can now rejoice as the app finally introduces the highly anticipated message editing feature, which allows for corrections up to five minutes after the message is sent. This move is likely in response to the implementation of a similar feature in competing messaging apps such as Instagram, WhatsApp, and Google Messages.
With these new upgrades, Snapchat is poised to offer an even more enriching user experience. Personally, I am not a frequent Snapchat user, but I appreciate the new reminder feature of Snapchat My AI. However, I am curious to know your opinions about these recent enhancements.
