I'd like to know if there's a way to use my lens on SnapCamera without having to publish it live, or if there's a way to keep my own published lens private to a select group or individuals.
I heard that I could publish it and then choose 'Do Not Promote', but I'm unsure whether it will stop me from using it on SnapCamera.
Thank you!

Please enter a brief description of your issue:
Unfortunately, it's likely due to the operating system or hardware you're using – since they don't meet the system requirements for Lens Studio.
Still, we hear you loud and clear, and are logging the issue in case there's ever a workaround we can provide!

Keep an eye out for a followup email from us. We may have a couple more questions for you, or we might already have a solution to offer.
Happy creating!
Hi Sean,
Setting your Lens on Do Not Promote prevents Snapchatters from finding your Lens in Snapchat or Snap Camera via search. You will still get a custom Snapcode and Lens link you can share with individuals to unlock the link.
When you set a Lens to DNP, you won't be able to find it if you search by name in Snap Camera's search bar. However, if you put in the full Lens link in the Snap Camera search bar, your Lens will come up. This way it is still available for use on Snap Camera for whoever you share the link with. For more information on Lens Visibility Settings, see this guide.
Cheers,
Neha
