What's the point of Kik and Snapchat?

I have Kik but I only use it for my fandom account on Instagram to discuss fandom stuff but I stopped using it a few months ago. I don't have snapchat. I don't know why people use Kik messenger when they can just iMessage because iMessage and Kik are basically the same. And for Snapchat you can send photos on Instagram or iMessage.

People who don't have iphones or ipods or any things that use the app store can't get imessage but on google play store they can get kik and snapchat is awesome coz it only lasts for 10 seconds or less.

Exactly what Rose said. The advantage of Snapchat is you can the photo disappear after a few seconds. Not everyone uses iMessage, it isn't universal on all platforms, just iOS. Kik is the most popular messaging alternative and you don't have to give out your phone number, you can block people and sort of keep things private if you need to.
