Snapchat may be a bit under pressure since Instagram released Stories, the first real Snapchat competitor born out of the Facebook empire. But the cute white ghost company isn’t going to go down without a fight. Snapchat has just added another collection of stickers, exactly what is missing on Instagram Stories.
Geostickers are a new kind of stickers that are only available based on your current location. In a way they are much like geofilters, expect they are stickers the you can resize and one around to add them to your snaps or send them in chats.

This add-on follows the already super cool Bitmoji stickers that were introduced a couple of weeks ago on Snapchat.
The truth is that Snapchat is also facing the competition of Twitter who recently added stickers too, and Snapchat is probably keen to reinforce its leading position on that market. Who knows!

Geostickers can be used by all users but you will need to find yourself in 1 of the 10 major world cities where the custom location based stickers are available: Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Washington DC, Honolulu, London, Sydney, São Paulo, Paris, and Riyadh.
Oh, and of course you will need to have your location services enabled to see them, they are called GEOstickers for a reason!
Happy Snapping!
