People are quickly finding creative ways to use Snapchat's latest feature, which lets you pin emoji stickers to moving parts of a video snap.

The feature works similarly to the way Snapchat lenses — those whacky selfie filters — track your face and follow you in frame. It's pretty easy to use: just add an emoji from the top right sticker button after you shoot a video in the app, and then tap and hold on a moving part of the video to have the emoji float over it and move around.
Pinnable emojis have been available on the Android version of Snapchat for a few days, and an update added the feature to the iPhone version on Tuesday.
