If you are trying to delete your old tweets on Twitter but having a hard time loading them because they were posted several years ago, there is an application that can solve the problem called Keep or Delete.

Keep or Delete is a new application available on iOS for $0.99, Mashable reported. The application works slightly like Tinder as users swipe from left and right to either keep or permanently delete old tweets. The application will gather and load old tweets, and the user can swipe right to keep the tweet, or left to delete it.

The Keep or Delete application also has a deletion delay feature if the user is undecided on whether to completely remove old tweets. It works by setting a period before deleting the tweet permanently, so when the user changes its mind, the deletion may be canceled.

It is easy to find old content by typing it in Twitter's search bar. Friends, employer, and even the government can see the tweet that has been written even it is posted over a year ago just typing it in the search bar tool. That is why Keep or Delete application was invented.

The German developer of Keep or Delete, Tobias Block, says that he created this application when his friend got trouble after applying for a job. Block stated that in his friend's twitter history, there were a lot of either long or short embarrassing old tweets pointing to the company, therefore he was rejected by the firm.

When asked if it's possible to make a Keep or Delete application for Facebook, Block said that the social media platform does not have API for deleting contents, it does not allow removing the old posts using a third party application.
