Snapchat now lets you inform others when you have arrived at your destination

Snapchat has introduced 'Arrival Notifications,' which let users set one-time or recurring alerts for destinations beyond their home, providing an automatic way to share when they arrive at specific places. "Arrival Notifications now work for everyday moments — like letting someone know you’re back for the night while traveling, or automatically sharing when you arrive at a weekly class, practice, or meeting — without needing to remember to send a message," the company said.

These alerts, like the platform’s Home Safe feature, can only be sent to friends you choose to share your location with. Location sharing on Snap Map is off by default, so no one can see your location or receive an alert unless you opt in. One-time alerts expire after they’re sent or after 24 hours.
