Samba Notes

Please note that it is possible for the recipient to screen capture or use other methods to record your snaps in ways that we cannot prevent. We will remove your snap from our servers within a reasonable time frame once all recipients have viewed it.

We've included privacy controls in the settings on your profile so you can decide who sees your public timeline or who can message you.

Samba was designed for rich media so please connect to WIFI or LTE networks for an optimal experience.
