Facebook has added a new feature to its self destructing messaging app Slingshot. The app is getting a new explore mode which allows users to find people to follow.
“As we grow, many have asked for an easier way to discover other creative people around the world. We wanted to do this in a fun way that puts the focus on people and helps create new connections within our community.”
posted Slingshot on a blog.
The Explore mode can be accessed using a new button which appears at the top of the application. The new tab will feature users that are active on Slingshot. Explore is an opt-out feature and users can choose not to be visible on it and can change the settings. Officially launched on Android and iOS in June, Slingshot enables user to send disappearing photo and video messages. The app received update in December with new tools and features.
