If you are someone who types a furious text message, only to reconsider and edit it before hitting ‘send,’ you may be in trouble. The Beam Messenger app shows everything another person is typing in a text message as they type it. This means that if your friend has the app, they could see the keys you press, including corrections and everything you choose not to send. The Californian firm behind the free Android app claim it is ‘a first of its kind true real-time communications app’ that more closely mimics the way people to chat in person. For example, it lets people interject or comment in real-time, without having to wait for the other person to hit send. |
