Alternatively, you can tap on the Explore icon, which looks like a compass rose, located at the bottom left corner of the camera screen.

3. **Explore the Map:** Once you've accessed the Snap Map, you'll see a map view with various icons representing your friends' Bitmoji avatars, as well as other locations, events, and public Snaps shared by users around the world.

4. **View Friends' Locations:** You can see the locations of your friends who have opted to share their location on Snapchat. Their Bitmoji avatars will appear on the map, indicating their current location.

5. **Interact with Map Features:** You can interact with the map by zooming in or out, panning across different areas, and tapping on icons to view more information about specific locations or events.

6. **Share Your Location:** If you choose to share your location on Snapchat, your Bitmoji avatar will appear on the map for your friends to see. You can customize your location sharing settings in the Snapchat app's privacy settings.

7. **Discover Stories and Events:** Explore the map to discover public Snaps, Stories, and events happening in different locations around the world. Tap on icons to view Snaps from specific locations or events shared by other users.

8. **Navigate Settings:** You can adjust your Snap Map settings by tapping on your Bitmoji avatar or your profile icon on the map. From there, you can manage your location sharing preferences, enable Ghost Mode to hide your location, and customize who can see your location on Snapchat.
