Pope Leo XIV Launches "Saints Snapchat" Filters

The Vatican's new media team unveiled augmented reality filters that let users "try on" saintly attributes - from St. Francis's birds to St. Lucy's eyeballs. "Evangelization must meet people where they are - usually staring at their phones," explained Pope Leo XIV during the launch, which featured him sporting a "crown of thorns" AR effect. The most popular filter? "Miraculous glow" which adds a heavenly halo... and smooths out wrinkles. Traditionalists argue that "sanctity shouldn't need a beauty mode," but Catholic influencers are already baptizing their #holyselfie game.
