The Minder app returns control back to the creator.

The Internet generally has a mind of its own; if you upload your own content, it's hard to govern its trajectory. Minder allows [artists, writers and marketers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allinone-platform) the ability to regulate how, when and where their work is consumed. Users have the ability to choose who their audiences are, set geographic limitations for where the content is accessible and manage how long the content is available.

Users also have the option of sharing the material through different platforms, whether it be [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-4), e-mail or SMS. The content will be mediated, and displayed, by Minder, meaning that people who click on the link will be directed there. Think of it as a safe haven for your hard work.
