Snaps within Groups can be opened and replayed once by each participant, and if they are not opened, they, too, disappear after 24 hours.Snapchat added in a blog post: Groups can be created while sending a Snap, or when you’re making a new chat. When your friends are present in a group chat, we show their name at the bottom of the chat. Simply tap their name to start a 1:1 chat, and then easily return to the Group in one swipe. We call this Quick Chat, and it’s the fastest way to keep the conversation going with one friend without spamming the entire Group. SnapchatCreateGroup from SocialTimes on Vimeo.
