Snapchat Lenses can liven up your chats with a variety of filters to choose from. While you’re video chatting with friends on Zoom, you can apply Lenses from Snapchat to change up your appearance and entertain your friends. Here are the 14 best Snapchat Lenses on Zoom to make video calls so much fun.

Those who haven't used Snapchat's Snap Camera before will need to download the desktop application for their PC or Mac computer first. Then, you'll be able to use Snapchat Lenses with Zoom, as well as other video chatting services like Google Hangouts and Skype. The installation process is simple, and with a few steps, you'll be on your way to using your fave Lenses in your Zoom calls.

First, check to make sure your computer has the minimum requirements of Windows 7 (64-bit) for PC and OS 10.11 for Macs. Next, download the Snap Camera application and complete the prompts for installation. After it's installed, you may want to restart your computer or your Zoom app to make sure Snap Camera is visible. Finally, open up Zoom, and go to your Settings. From there, click on the Video tab and select the Camera drop-down menu and select "Snap Camera." Now you'll see a Snap Lens on your Zoom screen.

To change your Snapchat Lens, you'll need to do so directly through the Snap Camera. You'll find a ton of diferent Lenses at your fingertips with Snap Camera, but if you're looking for something specific, type in a search term in the "Search Lenses" bar toward the top.
