How To Unsend Those Awkward Messages You Sent By Accident

The drunk texter's new best friend.

Ever accidentally sent a message slagging someone off to the person in question? Or send a rudey dudey text you meant for your crush to your mum?

Well, you no longer have to face the music on that one as some genius has finally invented an app that will enable you to 'unsend' the awkward messages that you'd rather never saw the light of day.

Called Privates, the app in question sounds all kinds of clever and is essentially a tool for helping to protect your privacy online.

Not only will it be able to recall messages - at least until the person at the other end has opened them - but it will also include security settings that protect you from people screenshotting messages or saving images you send that you don't want them to.

Currently it's only available on iOS, but they are apparently in the process of developing versions for Android and Windows, so hold tight if you aren't currently an iPhone user.

Check out the video below to see how it works:

Basically this is the drunk texter's new best friend. Are we right?
