How to find out if someone unfriended you on Facebook
(Who Deleted Me) A glimpse of the Who Deleted Me app interface.
If you've ever been curious why your Facebook friend count is down, there is now an app that tells you who exactly unfriended you.
The free app for iOS and Android is called Who Deleted Me, and it was spotted by Rachel Zarrell at BuzzFeed. It also is a browser extension for Google Chrome.
It works by simply saving a copy of your friend list after you first use Who Deleted Me.
(Who Deleted Me) Who Deleted Me tells you who your missing friends are as well as who recently became your Facebook friend.
When you revisit the app or browser extension, it will compare your friend list with the saved version — which unfortunately means you can't see who unfriended you back in 2012.
It provides a list of who stopped being your friend on Facebook as well as any new friends since the last time you were logged on.
Both the app and the browser extension will identify whether you were the one to delete a friend and whether someone merely deactivated their Facebook profile. Here's a mock-up of what the app looks like:

The app and website became so popular this week that the website began running slower on Monday and eventually suffered some outages. Who Deleted Me has since said it has updated to bigger servers to cover the increased traffic.

Website outages aren't the only concern for the new app. Back in February, the app's creator, Anthony Kuske, received a notice from the Facebook Team telling him that his app and browser extension were creating a negative user experience:

Still, more than 36,000 people have liked the Who Deleted Me app page on Facebook, so there's obviously a marketplace for it.
The app is not the first of its kind. A browser extension released last year called Unfriend Notify has roughly the same service, and there is also a Twitter version called WhoUnfollowedMe?.
So the next time you're debating unfriending your aunt who sends all those FarmVille requests, now you may want to think twice.
