How To Remix Snaps On Snapchat - MakeUseOf

Snapchat’s Remix feature allows you to create new Snaps that build on your friends’ Snaps or even your own old Snaps. You can record your own Snap alongside the original as it plays, much like TikTok’s Duets feature.

This article will show you how to remix a snap and get more creative with the way you engage with and create videos on Snapchat.

What Is a Snapchat Remix?

Remix allows you to record a video response to a friend's Snap while their clip plays directly next to it. When you record your Remix, you have the option of selecting different formats, such as whether your video appears next to, above, or in the corner of the original clip.

This feature is unmistakably similar to TikTok's Duets, which are typically reserved for actual song duets as well as funny collaborations or reactions. If you need an explainer, here's how to duet on TikTok and why you should.

Duets are essentially two-in-one videos that display the original video alongside the new one. TikTok, like Snapchat, allows users to change the layout of the Duet.
