Lens categories not applying after publishing (Primary & Secondary remain blank)
For the past ~3 months, I’ve been consistently facing an issue where lens categories are not applied after publishing.
Regardless of the lens type (Game, 3D, ML, or Beauty), both Primary and Secondary categories remain blank on the published lens, even though the lens is live and public.
This impacts:
Lens discovery and reach
Proper placement in the Games category
Fullscreen game UX for game-based lenses
Because of this, game lenses are not reaching the intended audience, and overall views have dropped significantly.
This issue is occurring across multiple lenses, not just one, and seems to be unrelated to the…
6 votesHello all,
We have removed the ability for users to specify tags. this was intended because our moderation team follows a categorization system and is the team that makes the determination.
We are currently working on ways to make their designations more transparent and accurate. Feel free to leave more feedback on ways that you think we can do better and we will have updates soon.

Outdated Template & Deprecated API - Face Expressions
Hey guys,
I was checking the Face Expression guide and noticed that it's still mentioning a deprecated API getExpressionWeightByName('MouthClose')
This API doc was updated:
But this one still uses the deprecated API:
https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/api/lens-scripting/classes/Built-In.Expressions.html
Also, the Face Expression template available in the asset library uses deprecated APIs and gives out the warning shown in the image attached

We are working through these potential updates!

Nearby AR Experience Discovery (Landmarkers & Custom, Image Tracking & AR Mirrors)
A feature that lets Snapchat users discover AR experiences nearby — including Image Marker Lenses, Landmarker/Custom Landmarker Lenses, and AR Mirrors built with Camera Kit. When users are near an active experience, they’d receive a smart notification or in-app prompt to explore it.
This would help brands and creators increase visibility for real-world AR activations while connecting digital creativity with physical locations.

Broken asset: Face Landmarks
Hey all!
The Face Landmarks asset found in the Asset Library has one critical issue in the PinToFaceLandmarks.js code that happens when the tracking face is lost.
I believe this is happening because the onLandmarksUpdate event continues firing even when the face is lost.
This is the asset I'm referring to:
https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/features/ar-tracking/face/face-templates/face-landmarksI attached an image of the error.
I also believe there are errors with the FaceLandmarksDistanceTrigger.js

Behavior script with haptic feedback!
Haptic feedback is an amazing feature that sorta flew under the radar. Not many people even know they can add custom vibrations to their lenses! I modified the behavior script to add haptic feedback so even people who don't code can utilize it and grab their audience's attention!
I can't share the file, but I'm pretty sure it works!
3 votesThis is already part of an upcoming improvement to the behavior script. We are excited for that to be available in the future.
We will consider if there are ways we can release sooner.

Feature Request: Marketplace for Lens Studio
I would like to suggest the addition of a Marketplace within Lens Studio.
This feature would allow creators to:
• Share, buy, and sell assets such as scripts, shaders, materials, and templates.
• Access a wide library of ready-made components to speed up development.
• Collaborate and exchange resources within the creator community.3 votes -
Fix: getComponent(SomeClass.getTypeName()) bug
getComponent(SomeClass.getTypeName()) seems to not be checking the numbers after the colon ":" in the getTypeName() string!
When the string is the same before the colon for multiple components on the same SceneObject, it can return the wrong component. Been running into this a couple times and it took a while to figure out what the issue was.

Show exact node name matches first
In Node editors, when searching for a node (like the "Or" node), a bunch of other nodes show up as well because a lot of names contain the text. It would be great to get the "Or" node at the top of that list since it's an exact match

Monetize Lenses
This is probably not related to Lens Studio it self but it would be good for the ecosystem to bring back Digital Goods. It gives more value to invest time and skills into working for Snap projects.
7 votesWe want to bring back IAP, but there are some things we need to do first to give it a better chance at driving results for you all. In the meantime we're bullish on Lens+ and think this can be a huge opportunity. More on this soon...

Don't always show a crash report modal after an Lens Studio crash
I would like to have an opt out button to not have to see a 'Report Crash' window. LS crashes an instane amount of times on Windows and having to dismiss that window is just another step

AI Portraits Beta - Can't Preview
The AI Portraits Beta guide says on topic 11 that we can preview the effect by tapping on the preview screen, however this is not working.
I also tried pushing to the device and got an error "Something went wrong. Failed to Generate Your Appearance).
It only works when I publish the Lens.
Here's the guide link:

Better error feedback from publish bot
When publishing, the error message is often unclear for creators. Only after contacting support do we learn the real issue. Could these detailed errors be included in the feedback when a lens is not accepted?

Face in Video AE Tool Outdated
Hey everyone,
I was looking at the Face in Video guide and I noticed that the AE script is outdate and therefore gives an error in Lens Studio.
It's simply because "api" is deprecated. Removing it makes it work

Cylindrical Image Targets
Was recently exploring 8th wall and one thing that stood out was cylindrical and conical image targets. Given that we have soo many designs in real life that are on curved surfaces like bottle, poles, pipes etc. cylindrical targets would really help in Lens Studio as well
7 votesThanks for this feedback Krunal. This is something long talked about. I'm curious, to what degree do you think that training your own custom object detection models solves for this?

Issue with the Face in Picture asset
There's an issue with the template/asset Face in Picture found in the library.
https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/features/ar-tracking/face/face-templates/face-in-pictureWhen we add it to the project, it comes with the wrong scale and position for the face assets, so the face is tiny and doesn't really appear on the preview.
