Toolbar and Shortcuts

Toolbar

Lens Studio's toolbar is made of up of a collection of tools that allow you to configure your project's info, access various tools like Asset Library and GenAI, preview your Lens from within Snapchat, and even publish your Lens for the world to see!

Home

The Home button allows you to access the Home page, which provides quick access to your recent projects, sample projects, and other inspirational materials.

Asset Library

The Asset Library button allows you to access ready to use building blocks that you can use in your Lens. These building blocks are a great way to start or add on top of your Lens. They are made by the community, as well as from us.
