No, the title is not a Doctor Who reference. Not everything I post is about Doctor Who! :)
It's the App of the Day, called KillSwitch.
Since technology is frequently used to spy on or insert oneself into someone else's life, it seems fair to use it to remove someone from your life as well...which is a handy little service now offered by KillSwitch! Seeing all your ex's old posts and pictures pop up on Facebook certainly can't help with the moving on process...which is where KillSwitch comes in. See below for PureWow's write up on this app:
Breaking up was always hard to do, but remember the days when you didn’t have to publicly change your relationship status... or unsubscribe from your former sister-in-law’s blog... or look at pictures of your ex’s weird new woman and her extensive scrunchy collection?
Here to make the process slightly less loathsome is KillSwitch, a $1 app that removes any trace of your ex from your Facebook profile--without giving him the satisfaction of a “de-friending,” of course.
Get started by downloading the app and selecting your former beau (or heinous frenemy or terrible boss) from your list of contacts. KillSwitch will then locate all the posts, comments and photos in which he’s been tagged and give you the option of deleting them en masse or carefully excising them one by one. In other words, the next time you log on to Facebook, it can be as if he never even existed.
Worried you might one day want that adorable pic of him snuggling with your cat? Fear not: KillSwitch secretly saves all of your deleted content to a hidden (though totally accessible) folder, meaning you can easily retrieve it should you ever get back together with the loser.
Enjoy and happy deleting!
