Make your online posts go Kaboom and vanish

There are certain posts that have limited shelf lives. Or you just don’t want people seeing content past a certain time. That’s where apps like Kaboom come in handy. The app lets you set an expiry date on your posts. Whether it’s through WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook, direct links, email, or SMS, you can decide how long your messages or photos stay online. You can have it disappear after an hour, a day, or when you reach a certain number of views.

If security worries you, the app was created by AnchorFree, the team behind Hotspot Shield, a popular Wi-Fi security and online privacy app for Android.
