Voice-controlled lenses are making their way to Snapchat users starting Wednesday.
When voice-controlled lenses are added to the messaging application’s Lens Carousel, they will recognize “a small subset” of words in English, and on-screen prompts will help users learn how to activate them.
Snapchat said voice-controlled lenses will appear in Lens Carousel “periodically.”
