If you are someone who types a furious text message, only to reconsider and edit it before hitting ‘send,’ you may be in trouble. The Beam Messenger app shows everything another person is typing in a text message as they type it. This means that if your friend has the app, they could see the keys you press, including corrections and everything you choose not to send. The Californian firm behind the free Android app claim it is ‘a first of its kind true real-time communications app’ that more closely mimics the way people to chat in person. For example, it lets people interject or comment in real-time, without having to wait for the other person to hit send. And, if the recipient already knows a story that the sender is typing, they can tell them so they don’t waste time finishing the text. Elsewhere, the app also means people can have conversations without ever hitting send, making them secure because no data is ever transferred and stored on a network. But, it is not known how the app tracks what is being typed and how much it stores on its own servers and MailOnline has contacted the firm for more information. The Toronto-based developers added there is no delay between typing and seeing the words appear in the message window. It calls this ‘beaming in’, and said it gives users the ability to ‘interrupt, interject, comment, and the like’. ‘While you are texting inside a bubble, without breaking, you are allowed to backtrack and jump forward at will. ‘Also you may delete the whole text altogether, gone from both devices in true real time fashion.’ An iOS app is 'coming soon.' |
如果你是那種短信言辭憤怒的人，但想到會引起對方的不悅，于是在按下“發送”鍵前又重新修改，那你可能要麻煩上身了。 據英國《每日郵報》報道，一款名為Beam的通訊類應用程序能讓你看到對方正在輸入的所有內容。 也就是說如果你朋友的手機中安裝了這款應用，他們就可以知道你按了哪些鍵，包括修改的痕跡以及所有你不打算發送的內容。 開發出這款安卓版免費應用軟件的是美國加利福尼亞的一家公司。該公司稱beam是“首個真正實現實時交流互動”的應用程序，它更加貼近人們聊天的方式。 舉例來說，它可以讓人們即時插話或評論而無需等至對方按下發送鍵。 同時，如果對方正在輸入消息而接受的一方已經從中知曉接下來的內容，這時就可以直接告知。這樣一來對方就不必再浪費時間繼續輸入消息了。 另一方面，這款應用意味著用戶們可以在不敲擊發送鍵的情況下展開對話。這保證了交流雙方的隱私安全，因為不會有任何在線數據的傳輸與紀錄。 不過，尚不清楚它是如何記錄下用戶的數據并將它們存儲到自己的服務器上。為了解更多細節，MailOnline聯系到了這家公司。 多倫多研發中心的開發者們表示在信息窗口中打字和瀏覽內容兩者之間沒有時間差。 他們稱此為“信息流入（beaming in）”，通過它，用戶們能夠實現打斷、插話、評論、點贊等一系列相關的交流方式。 開發者說：“當你正在對話框里打字，你可以隨時倒退或前進到某個地方。” “你也可以刪掉所有輸入的內容，由于這是實時交流，雙方的設備中的文字都會被刪除?！?適用于iOS系統的beam應用程序將于近日上線。
