Facebook counts as an application to send messages to self-destruct

According to the Financial Times, Facebook is developing a self-destruct messaging application, similar to the way Snapchat works.

Facebook is said to be developing an application capable of sending messages that cancel themselves

CNET quoted the report of the Financial Times as saying that the application Facebook is developing will be called Slingshot and may be available in the market next month.

The mode of operation of Slingshot is said to be quite similar to Snapchat, when it is possible to help users send a piece of photo or video messages to their friends. After that, the recipient can only see them for a predetermined amount of time and then it will be deleted by itself.

This will allow users to quickly send some " private " messages or videos to the people who need to see it, without having to worry that they will be copied back to spread online.

According to the Financial Times , Facebook's own development of Slingshot application is considered a move to reform its own service, after it was reported that Facebook has repeatedly tried to buy Snapchat at a price. to $ 3 billion but was rejected.

Currently, Facebook has declined to comment on the information the Financial Times has just revealed.
