PHOENIX — Snapchat users worldwide received a tour of the Phoenix area Tuesday.

The popular photo- and video-sharing app featured shots of the Valley sent in by different users. The photos covered everything from hiking to tubing and heading to an Arizona Diamondbacks game.

Phoenix is one of dozens of cities to be featured by Snapchat. The app also explored Manchester, England.

The entire idea of Snapchat is to send photos or videos that are deleted after a short time, but we used the screenshot function to show off a few.

We want to hear from you.
