Facebook has attempted to offer Snapchat last year - the social network even went up to $ 3 billion on the table! But now, the owners of the application of ephemeral instant messaging have pushed ahead of Mark Zuckerberg, who preferred to buy WhatsApp ... for $ 19 billion, no less.
The social network has still kept in mind the project to develop a competitor Snapchat. Last month, Facebook put an end to the suffering of Poke, a first failed attempt to clone Snapchat. Slingshot is far more serious.
This software, appeared momentarily on the Apple App Store before disappearing mysteriously, offers more or less the same functions as its model. We can share photos and videos (scribbled or not) with his friends, these documents are temporary: they will fade soon as they have seen ... at least that is the promise of the social network.
Slingshot allows also to send a quick reply; the difference between this app and Snapchat is that in order to "unlock" message, it will be sent in before the recipient. A strange mechanism at first, and we can not judge the value of the thing as Facebook has not given the app online.
