It's called "Who Deleted Me on Facebook," and aims to help social media users keep tabs on their contacts list. The app currently has Apple iOS and Google Android versions and released for download June 29.

"Who Deleted Me keeps track of your Facebook friend list and notifies you when friends go missing. We'll tell you if they deleted you or deactivated. We'll also tell you when you make new friends!" the App Store description reads.
