App fills in memory lapses for drunkards after night out

AFTER a night of drinking there may be parts of an evening drunkards forget – or moments they wish they could erase from their memory. But now there is an app that not only fills in these gaps in memory, it shares evidence of their drunken antics with their friends.

Called Flashgap, all photos and videos taken using the app are added to a hidden album that only becomes visible the following day.

Flashgap is free for iOS and Android and was created by Julian Kabab. Before a night out, one user creates an event and becomes that event’s host. They can then add friends to the event at any point until the event ends.

During the night, photos and videos can be taken using the app and each shot lasts for just three seconds before it disappears. All of this “evidence” is added to an album that collects photos and images taken by any attendee, and this album remains hidden until midday the day after the event.

At this point all attendees are notified that the album is ready to be viewed. Only people who attended the event can see the album, and users can only delete the photos they took themselves. Any photos deleted from the album are deleted from all users’ accounts.

Alternatively, people can report images taken by other people if they believe the photos are inappropriate.

The photos will be deleted by the Flashgap support team if the reason is legitimate. – Daily Mail
