FOR ANYONE WHO hasn’t seen it yet, Snapchat has added a new feature that shows where every single one of your friends are on a world map. When you zoom in, it reveals their exact location. Right down to their address.

It has put panic in the hearts of mams on Facebook, but it’s easy enough to hide your location on what they call ‘Ghost Mode’, which will protect you from potential kidnappers.

It is definitely entertaining and seems to be generating interest from people who previously abandoned the app for Instagram. Here’s how Twitter users have weighed in on the feature.

1. People thought the Best Friends feature was bad…
