Did you notice that the number of your Facebook friends has gone down a bit? It might be driving you more than a bit crazy trying to find out just who decided you were no longer worthy of hanging around on their Facebook page.
Well, if you really want to know, go ahead and check out the third-party app "Who Deleted Me" on Facebook. It will help you keep track of your friends list and even notify you when a connection deactivates their account or unfriends you.
The free app is available for iOS and Android and was spotted by Rachel Zarrell at Buzzfeed, according to the Business Insider. It is also a browser extension of Google Chrome. The way the app works is by simply saving a copy of your friend list after you first use "Who Deleted Me."
However, the app has been experiencing some difficulties, according to recent reviews in Apple's app store and Google Play. Users have noted difficulty getting the app to load. However, the team behind "Who Deleted Me" has said on their Facebook page that they are experiencing "higher than normal traffic" and will be upgrading today to bigger servers to handle certain requests, according to ABC News.
A similar app, called "Who Unfollowed Me," also tracks which Twitter users decide to unfollow you.
(Now if only we could find out why they did it!)
