How to make a boomerang (Bounce) on Snapchat

As popular social media apps compete, we can see that the owners are adding new options to keep their users interested in the app. Ever since the possibilities of video looping showed up, they kept surprising us by inserting more features related to video editing.

One of the most popular features in video editing is Boomerang. If you have never made a Boomerang on Snapchat and are interested, we will explain below how you can use the Boomerang feature on Snapchat.

Is the Snapchat Bounce option the same as the Boomerang?

On Snapchat, the Bounce option allows you to make a well-known video editing option called Boomerang. For those unfamiliar with Boomerang, it is the option that will enable you to repeat a part of the video that you recorded. This option highlights the specific moment in the video, making it start over and over again. Usually, it is about one second of the video.

As you know, Snapchat allows us to share a video no longer than 10 seconds. However, if it is longer, you can use other options, such as trimming, cropping, or resizing the video. All of these features are provided by Snapchat.
