Interactive elements without script
It would be nice if the user can tap in space (in the air) and act as if the AR object will respond without using any script. We (creators) could make an interactive slideshow or presentation when an interactive element (such as a button) will be doable without any script.

Feature Suggestion for Lens Web Builder & Mobile App: Add Lens Tag Input on Submission
Hey team,
As a Snap Lens Network partner, we at Arexa & Bharat XR have been actively hosting SnapAR meetups across India — bringing together creators, students, and professionals to explore the power of AR using Snapchat’s ecosystem. In our recent sessions, we introduced participants to the new Lens Web Builder and Lens Studio mobile app, and the feedback has been phenomenal. The tools are incredibly easy, fun, and accessible — especially for first-time users.
That said, we wanted to share a small but valuable suggestion based on our experience:
During our meetups, we ask all participants to use our…

Preview Stops Working with TypeScript Errors
When writing TypeScript code that contains errors, the preview stops functioning, even if the erroneous code has not been added to the scene. Additionally, the logger does not display any information regarding the errors.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Write TypeScript code with syntax or type errors.
- Observe that the preview stops working.
- Check the logger for error messages.
Expected Behavior: The preview should continue to work, and the logger should display relevant error messages indicating what is wrong with the TypeScript code.
Actual Behavior: The preview ceases to function, and no error messages are shown in the logger.

A/B testing in lenses
During the latest SLN all hands the team gave some insights into game lenses that caught my eye:
Having the user's front camera visible with picture in picture lead to higher engagement on spotlight. Versus focusing entirely on the game lead to higher retention, and greater shareability between friends.
As lenses become more and more complex, it would be great to have more insight into what makes our lenses engaging. Having a A/B testing suite would go a long way for optimization.
Give us the ability able to swap out or toggle certain components, and see which variant gives the…

Old ML Face models don't load in LS 5.0
The old models I created while Snap ML was in beta don't load in Lens Studio 5.0.
I also tried importing the .dng file to LS 5, but I can't make it work. Is it possible to make it compatible with LS 5? Currently I need to create these kind of project in LS 4.
Also I feel like the quality of the models created today is lower than the ones created during the closed beta.
Thanks

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.
5 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...

Clear persitant storage on device
It would be handy to remotely clear persistant storage on the physical device via Lens Studio. To do it now you need to go deep in the Snapchat settings to do so.

Double click on Script name should go to editor
I would like to double click on the script in the Inspector and go instantly to my code editor of choice. Now I need to highlight the script file and double click on the file in the assetbrowser, this was working in 4.55.

Modifier tools with hard numbers
In LS I would like to hold Shift or CTRL (CMD) and then when I manipulate (Rotate, Move) a sceneobject I want it to snap to whole numbers: rotating with 15 degress per 'snap' or move whole 10 centimeters.
3 votesThis is something that makes sense. We are reviewing with the team and will let you know when it's something we might be able to take on.

Physics collider is not fitting the visual
Physics colliders are not enclosing the visuals (mesh) correctly. This problem is for automatic fit and the manual size.
I understand there are workarounds like creating a manual sized collider in a separate sceneobject under the same parent. But that is too time consuming and introduces bugs. Getting a bound of a mesh should not be to difficult of a problem. ;-)
An other feature would be introducing an offset to the collider

Numpad dot in Inspector
When I use my default keyboard settings (Dutch - English) I can't use the numpad . (dot) in the Inspector window. Which means I can't make a float number like 0,5, it always make just a 0 and a 5 which makes a 5. A workaround is to use English -American as a keyboard setting but that's not always handy to some users.

Importing 3d asset bring focus to LS
On Windows (not checked on Mac) when I drag drop a .fbx, .glb, etc. on my assets panel with a screen (half) obscured over Lens Studio the import dialog misses focus. I need to explicitly give LS focus via pressing the icon on the taskbar to get the import dialog back.

Having a checkbox in the LS settings that checks scale in X, Y, Z automatically.
In LS 4.55 there was a checkbox in the settings that when checked the default scale was on all three axis of a SceneObject

Use ChatGPT or Claude to code Lenses. (Context7 MCP with Claude)
Hi everyone, as you might know, editing Lens Studio code with LLMs is a pain as NOTHING is up to date.
There is a new trends now based on MCP and Claude where the updated docs of every tools are on Context7 so Claude answers are always using latest docs.What are your thought on that ? Would be super helpful for everyone to finally unlock this for your users.

Face detection on Face mask tool
In Lens Studio versions 4.00, there was a button to automatically align the face mask to the person's face, ensuring the mask fit perfectly and the eyes, nose, and mouth matched. Could this option be added again? It's not in versions 5.00.

Better Audio Component
We need better Audio Component, (scrub forward/backward, pause, stretch)
AudioComponent currently does not support dynamic playback rate or pitch adjustment, nor does it offer any time-stretching capability necessary for realistic scratching.
4 votesSome of this can be accomplished my manipulating the Audio Component directly (https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/api/lens-scripting/classes/Built-In.AudioOutputProvider.html)
But understood on the feedback. We will look into it

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
6 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?

World mesh should be accessible via script
Currently the world mesh mesh information is not accessible via script. This makes it difficult to do things like spatial understanding (i.e. voxelization of the mesh) as well as writing custom physics responses to the mesh.
4 votesHey Blake, would you say this is primarily for spectacles that you are looking for this?

Dynamic Image Tracker
Similar to Vuforia’s runtime image target API, it would be great if Lens Studio supported Dynamic Image Tracking, allowing creators to create and load image targets at runtime instead of predefining them during lens creation.
Use Case:
• Let users scan custom images (from camera or gallery) during the lens experience.
• Enable personalized AR interactions, dynamic campaigns, and scalable retail activations.Why It Matters:
This would unlock real-time, user-generated tracking, pushing the creative and commercial potential of Snap AR far beyond static image markers.
2 votesDefinitely see the appeal here. We will review to see if this is something that aligns with us. Thanks!
