[discussion] where does snapchat store photos/videos?

So I've went into the /data/data/com.snapchat.android/ folder, and it is only about 200KB, so the image/video files can't be stored there.

I also noticed if you have a new message, and you close and open the app, it will have to redownload it. So it seems that snapchat is storing the images in the RAM.

So I dumped the ram of my snapchat PID, using this method. I had to download a compiled gdb binary.

I then used photoRec to scan all the *.dump files [I concatenated them all first, the file was about 100MB]. For filesystem I said "Other."
All I got was one txt file. It seemed to be xml, and contained a lot of usernames of my friends, but that's all.

If anyone has any input on the subject, here is the thread for it!
