β€‹β€‹πŸ‘» vs πŸ“Έ

#Snapchat lags significantly in user numbers: in December 2017, it reported 50 million monthly users, compared to 65 million for #Instagram.

However, the amount of time that users spend in each app gives a distinct advantage to Snapchat: its users spent nearly 4.5 hours/month using the Snapchat app, compared to 3.5 hours/month among Instagram users.

And living up to its reputation as a Millennial honeypot, Snapchat’s user base skews young:
A third of its user base is aged 18-24 & nearly two thirds (64%) of its user base is below the age of 35.
In comparison, only 18% of Instagram’s user base is between the ages of 18-24, while more than a third of its user base is over the age of 45.
