Like the SnapChat? Japanese startup Cocone released Messaging apps "TonTon" where a message disappears

Unfortunately SnapChat does not have popularity at all in Japan. However, the messaging apps that resembled it was released. It is "TonTon"(iOS/Android). TonTon is service of Japanese startup Cocone, and the system is very simple.

At first, when user's registration, the phone number is not necessary. Only by the setting the user name and it's completed in only five seconds.

The most important function is automatic removal of messages. It's like images of SnapChat. All messages disappear from the both sides of a sender and the addressee in constant time.

In addition, there are no stickers in TonTon. This is rare for Japanese messaging apps. There is a function to tell a friend about one's existence by a knock in substitution for it. This is an origin of the service names of TonTon. "Ton-Ton" means a knock in Japanese onomatopoeic word.

Cocone explains this is the service that is easier than other messaging apps. Surely other precedence messaging apps(ex LINE) more many functionalize it. TonTon focus on a momentary chat.
