Hey Product Hunters! 👋 I built chrono.chat to solve a simple problem: how to deliver messages at exactly the right moment without being there to send them. Whether you're planning surprise party details, coordinating an announcement, or just want to send a birthday message that arrives at midnight, chrono.chat makes it easy. Here's how it works: Write a hint (visible immediately) and your main message (hidden until the set time) Select when you want the message to be revealed Share the generated link with anyone What makes it special is its simplicity - no accounts needed, works on any device, and creates a moment of anticipation when recipients watch the countdown tick to zero. We're already working on exciting new features including: - Media attachments for images and videos - Expiring messages that disappear after being viewed - Location-based revealing (messages that only unlock when someone is at a specific place) - Custom theming options to personalize the countdown experience I'd love to hear how you might use this tool and what other features you'd like to see in future updates!

@masump Hi, thanks for your comment. First, what do you mean by security? And second, it uses server-side checks before showing up the message, it uses UTC timezone for storing scheduled date.
