Snapchat has arrived on the Microsoft Store as a Progressive Web App. The instant messaging platform will now be available on windows.

According to a Windows Central report, the Progressive Web App (PWA) would run through Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 and 11 personal computers and is powered by Microsoft’s Chromium-based Microsoft Edge. The app, 1.4 MB in size, is built on the web version of Snapchat that was launched a few months ago. According to reports, Windows will treat the PWA as a native app that can be pinned to the start menu to receive notification alerts.
