Why Bounce from Snapchat?
There are a few reasons you might want to meet that account:
- Privacy issues harsh your vibe - you want Snap to stop snatching your data
- It's becoming a major time burglar and you need to focus on other quests
- Security breaches make you feel unsafe and you need to protect your crew
- You feel pressured to share pics/vids you don't really want to

- You found a new digital playground that really ticks your boxes!
