Pause Before You Send
Only for iPhone
$0.99
iPhone
Ever regretted sending an sms to an ex, employer or friend? Before you hit send, count to 10 and breathe while 2nd Thoughts puts your sms on hold for as long as you need!
2nd Thoughts helps you pause before you hit send.
We’ve all done it — sent a message we've lived to regret.
An emotional text. A late-night reply. A rushed response to an employer, an ex, or a friend.
2nd Thoughts gives you space and allows you to vent by helping you put thoughts into words, while possibly preventing those moments of shame or regret.
Write your message.
Choose a delay — minutes, hours, or even until tomorrow morning.
Then step away.
When the timer ends, you can edit, delete, copy, or send your message with clarity... or, on 2nd thoughts; rather not..!
No servers.
No message tracking.
No accounts.
Just a simple pause between reaction and response.
Features:
• Pick a recipient from your contacts
• Attach photos
• Set quick delays (2, 5, 10 minutes)
• Custom delays (hours or until tomorrow 9:00)
• Edit, delete, copy, or send via iMessage/SMS
• Clean, distraction-free design.
...because sometimes the best message is the one you rewrite.
..or , on 2nd thoughts, the one you simply didn't send.
