Facebook notifies you when someone accepts your friend request and both of you become friends. But you never come to know when someone unfriends you, no notification, no email, nothing. So how can you come to know when someone unfriends you?
The obvious answer someone can think of is checking your friend list count, but checking and remembering all of your friend list is not a practical option to go for. And keeping a track of your friend list count can only tell you the number of people who unfriended you, but not the actual names. Another problem with this method is if you lose and add some friends, you won’t notice the exact change in your friend list count.
How To Find Out Who Unfriended You
I started learning the Facebook API a few days back, and since then I am trying to find ways of making it more useful. I also created a way you can get more likes for your Facebook page, and this is what I have come up with now:
I have made a small application that can find out who deleted you on Facebook. The procedure is very straightforward. When you visit the “Who deleted me on Facebook” page for the first time, all of your friends (IDs) are stored in the database. When you visit the web page again, all your current friends are compared with the list stored in the database. If someone goes missing, they will be displayed to you with the link to their profile, in case you want to re-friend them or leave a nice message 🙂 . The new friend list is also updated to our database to make sure to include all the friends you have added during this time.
Unfriend Notifications
Recently, I also added the notification system to the app. It automatically does everything said above – every 12 hours. Whenever any of your friend goes missing, it will send you a notification to your Facebook account.
What Do You Need To Do
Not much to be precise. You need to sign up at Mstoic Social (Either by Email or Facebook) and authorise our Facebook app. Then you need to visit “Who Unfriended Me On Facebook” page, and all your friends will automatically be added to our database. Then you can visit this website anytime to see who unfriended you on Facebook.
In the meantime, we will send you notifications if any of your friend unfriends you on Facebook.
The notification is sent within 12 hours when someone unfriends you. This is because the database is huge and I can’t allow the script to run more than twice a day. I will surely decrease the duration once I go for a better server 🙂
