Hash Livens Up Text Messaging With Ephemeral Video Loops
Finding new ways for people to message and engage their friends with technology is a constant theme in the world of mobile tech startups. Companies like Snapchat have turned unique ideas such as ephemeral messaging into massive success stories. One cool product in technology that is innovating further in this area is Hash. Hash is a mobile app that combines several different concepts from other messaging and social media products to come up with something new. Hash takes the concept of ephemeral messaging from Snapchat, but combines it with the popular trend of short, looping videos found on social media sites like Vine and Instagram. With Hash, users can send looping videos with that have their text messages superimposed over them. Each Hash video lasts 7 seconds and deletes itself after a recipient has viewed it. By combining several popular concepts and presenting them in a new and unique way to people, this cool product wants to make multimedia messaging the norm for smartphone users. Anyone who has trouble recording videos to send to others using Hash might have an issue with his or her phone that requires tech support service to fix.
Hash’s ephemeral aspect will likely appeal to the millions of people already using Snapchat, which only supports static photos as opposed to videos. However, while people can screenshot Snapchat pictures easily, Hash has the advantage of users being unable to record entire videos sent to them, making the experience truly ephemeral. Hash also informs people when a recipient has taken a screenshot of a single frame of a video in case senders wish to know. If someone believes he or she isn’t getting proper notifications on his or her phone, that person could potentially need smartphone computer repair.
Hash can be useful for many different social occasions. In particular, this cool product could be perfect for when someone is at an event and wants to show his or her friends what’s happening. Maybe someone wants to entice their friends into coming to a show or party, inform them of something newsworthy happening on the streets or even just send fun videos while on vacation. In any of these situations, Hash could work as a fun way to share the experience with friends and family. By recording a looped video rather than sending a staged picture or simple text, Hash gives people something to engage with and remember.
