The Custom geofilter studio is now located in Settings, under a menu item called “On-Demand Geofilters,” and it allows you to pick from a list of pre-set occasions, select a template and edit to customize using text, Bitmojis, and Snapchat’s Sticker library, too. Keep in mind these are Geofilters, which means they are only active over a specific geographic location, and that you’ll have to pay. Pricing seems fair though: fees start at $5.99 for few hours and a minimum area of 20,000 square feet, so you’ll get plenty of coverage for your money.

Now that it’s available within the app, I wouldn’t be surprised to see custom Geofilters become way more common. The mobile Geofilters tool is currently available in the US but will expand to other countries soon.
