Slingshot - Facebook's new photo and video app (leaked)

Nice hunt, @daveambrose. I copied the App Store description before they took it off the U.S. store: Slingshot lets you quickly share moments—little and big—with all your friends. Shoot a photo or video of what you’re up to and sling it to a bunch of people. They won’t be able to see your shot until they sling something back. Tap on a shot to react, or simply swipe it away. • Stay in touch: Capture photos and videos of moments you want to share with friends • Go shot for shot: To unlock new shots, first you have to sling something back • Enjoy it while it lasts: Once you swipe a shot away, it’ll no longer be viewable • Send a quick reply: After unlocking a shot, respond with your reaction • Get creative: Express yourself with captions and drawings • Look when you want: View unlocked shots later if you’re busy Download now and give it a, uh, shot.

And here are the App Store photos:

@rrhoover since when can you add images to product hunt comments? or are you just special?

Nice job getting screenshots :)

@netspencer - we're adding "official" image support in the coming weeks. Right now it's a hack. :P

@rrhoover (or anyone) any sense of what the react is doing? Is it Frontback like? Shots "reply with a selfie?"

Sigh, anyone else feeling like they are getting messaging app overload? It's getting a bit silly - I'm not sure what need this solves? Facebook missed the boat on this one, but it's going to throw everything it's got at it to try and replicate it... again. I'm not sure I would trust Facebook, either. I want less messaging apps; one app to rule them all.

Figured out the image hack! :)

Oh snap!

so did I just change my itunes store to malaysia for nothing?
