Stop Stalking Your Ex on Facebook and 'Make the Kill'

New app, KillSwitch, launches on Feb. 14.

Just in time for the most romantic day of the year, KillSwitch launches in the App Store and GooglePlay today, Feb. 14. According to Mashable, KillSwitch "makes it easy to eliminate your ex's entire presence on your Facebook timeline," however, you must still be Facebook friends with your ex.

Identify the Facebook user from your friends list and the "app then crawls your profile for content." You can choose to delete all status updates, photos, videos, everything of your ex or just specific posts and pictures. All deleted pictures are saved "in a hidden album on your Facebook" according to the KillSwitch website.
