Snapguide app review: a perfect way to learn how to do something new

Reviews

Introduction

Snapguide by Heavy Bits Inc. is a sharing app for practically any step-by-step guide. In addition to ideas created by Snapguide’s staff, you can easily add a guide yourself about anything. There are thousands of guides within the app already, and they are about everything you can imagine. What if there isn’t a guide for what you need? Well, you can simply put in a request for a guide, and I’m sure someone will create one for you! You have to login to use the app.

Creating a Snapguide

The name Snapguide is derived from the synonym for "photo" (snap) and the word "guide." That is exactly what this is: a guide with photos. To create a guide, you need to write text, add photos, and create steps. Every step should contain a photo and a bit of explanatory text. You can also add a supply list, so anyone who follows your guide will be well-prepared before they start.

You can always save a draft of a guide you’re working on, as sometimes you are making something that can take a day or two to complete. You can even add videos to any step in your guide, which is especially handy for when you’re explaining a rather difficult instruction.

 

Sharing and Being Social

When you are using a guide, you can Favorite it, so you can always find your most-used guides when you need them. You can also Like the guide, which is only within Snapguide, so this goes around Facebook. You can leave comments too; for example, leave a comment if you used another ingredient or supply for this specific guide and want other people to know of your success.. Lastly, you can share the guide outside of Snapguide. This can be done via Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or email.

You can always copy the URL to use in any other way at a later moment in time.

Requesting a guide is also a great way to interact within the community. Before you know it you’ll have a lot of different guides from which to pick!

Conclusion

Snapguide is a fantastic app for sharing your ideas and recipes. If it’s fixing or cleaning your clothes or creating that perfect recipe, Snapguide will have it. If it doesn’t, you can simply request a guide and I’m positive anyone in the huge community will pick up your request and fulfill your guide needs within days. The app is compatible with both iPhone and iPad, so you can quickly search for anything you need at any time. The community is what makes this app great, so as long as everyone keeps adding guides, this will be the most complete app ever very soon. I recommend this app to everyone!
