Snapmatic

The social channel from GTA V returns, as a satire of photo apps and short-video apps.

Snapmatic is on the phone again. This time it is written as a parody of the photo feed and the short videos of this moment, and not as a photo mode on its own.

The same phone carries the radio outside the car, and the promised podcasts. Which other apps are fixed on the home screen has not been published as a list yet.

The Extended Look showed how social media runs through the game. In the Trunk Challenge, a man hangs off the trunk of a moving car while a livestream interface fills the screen with viewer comments. Lucia scrolls through feeds while lying on a Vice City beach.

Previews say Jason and Lucia do not post their own photos publicly. Other phone apps named in previews: Ryde Me, a ride-hailing service that lets you travel without driving, and WAINK, which scans a parked car for its value, lock status, and alarm.
