As stated in the previous post, the unsend app is an app that "unsends" any unread message that you no longer want the recipient to read. The unsend app has already been created, but only for the blackberry email accounts and gmail. By making the app accessible for texting (on most phones) makes the app more sufficient because people text everyday and some people throughout the day regret sending a text message to someone.
The unsend app is related to the lecture topic of social media because the app pertains to texting, but the app would be more sufficient than before if it could be used on social networks. Adding the unsend app to social networks would be very beneficial, it would be the same as deleting a Facebook post or deleting a tweet from Twitter, but the unsend app would "unsend" any unread direct message from Twitter and any regular message or instant message from Facebook and other social networks. The unsend app would connect to the social networks once a person authorize's the app to access their profile information, as people do for the "Unfollower App" for Twitter and Instagram.
Bringing the unsend app to social networks would also make the app even more popular and useful in our social lives. Since the "word" on social networks travel fast, everyone would know what the unsend app was and how it worked, just from one tweet or Facebook post etc. Because of social media today, the unsend app would need little advertisement, since the next post on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter etc. would most likely be about how amazing the unsend app was and would draw others in to wonder, "what this app is?" and how they should download it, since it would be the next big thing in social media. The app is also related to the lecture topic on privacy because once a message is unsent there is no history or evidence of what the message said. Every unsent message would disappear as if it was never sent or even thought about.

The Unsend App
You know how sometimes you send a text message that you wish you never would have sent in the first place, but there is no way to erase it or "unsend" it. In most text messages menu's there is a resend and a forward option, but not an option to erase an already sent message. No worries, the unsend app is here to save the day. The unsend app simply removes any unread message from the recipient's text messages, if the message is already read there is no purpose to "unsend" that message because the person has already seen the unseen.
As some of you may know, there is and unsend app for e-mail for the blackberry's and for gmail. Even though, that app is helpful to some that e-mail frequently, the unsend app is for text messages, which would make the application's purpose more efficient. The unsend app for text messages would also make our social lives less stressful. This app is a new beginning for social problems in text messages.
The unsend app will work on Iphones, Androids, and Blackberrys, and can be downloaded at the app store of these phones. This app simply adds the "unsend" option under the text message's menu or wherever the other options are located. The unsend app works like this: you send a text that you do not want the recipient to read, if the message is still unread all you have to to do is highlight the text message and click the "unsend" option and the text disappears, as if it was never sent. Texting just got easier.
