Looks like 6snap, a popular Snapchat app, has been removed from the Windows Phone Store, along with several other third-party Snapchat apps. No formal explanation has been given from Snapchat at this time, however, Rudy Huyn, the developer behind 6snap, has expressed his thoughts on the matter via Twitter.
Snapchat recently sent out an email to third-party app users, recommending that they cease using such apps or face potential account bans. Snapchat has yet to offer an official Windows Phone app, and according to Huyn, there isn’t a plan to offer an official app just yet. In the mean time, don’t uninstall 6snap or any other third-party app, or else you will be out of luck.
6snap has disappeared as well as all snapchat apps on store. I will work closely with Microsoft now to convince snapchat to change its mind

I receive a lot of questions about it: No official Snapchat app is planned. So just keep 6snap on your phone or use an other service
