A Modern Dating Must-Have: This App Ghosts People For You

Deploy Ghostbot to make a graceful exit.

Meet your new dating partner-in-crime Ghostbot. This Burner text-messaging bot helps you ghost your unwanted relationships — just create a fake number using the app and activate Ghostbot to interact with that weird Tinder match or that one man who can’t get the hint.

For example, a message asking you to “hang out this weekend” will get back a Ghostbot response “I’m pretty busy but I’ll get back to you” or an inappropriate booty call will receive a poop emoji. Ghostbot is “designed to be noncommittal but also have a little bit of snark or character when it interprets a message that’s provocative” said Burner creator Will Carter to The Guardian.
