'Facewash' to clean your 'Facebook' profile


'Facewash' to clean your 'Facebook' profile

Researchers have developed a new app that can help Facebook users clean up  pages from their profile. The "Facewash" app developed by researchers from Kent State University will search through a user's Facebook activity and content for items that the user may want to hide or delete. 
That could include status updates, photo , and comments users left or received as well as pages and links that were liked.




To use Facewash, users first need to go to its website, Facewa.sh, click "Get Started" and log into their Facebook account if they aren't logged in already. The user will be prompted to click "Go to App" and then give the app permission to access the user's contents. 

Search for a term and the app starts looking through all of the user's profile content. If Facewash finds a match, it'll show it to the user and link the posts so the user can easily delete a status or remove a picture.
