Do all those "find out who is viewing your profile" apps on facebook really work? - T. - 11-09-2012 09:50 AM I keep seeing one called Find Out Who Is Viewing Your Profile In Seconds !!! There are plenty more, of course. Do they actually work?! I've seen that they give people notifications of people who view their profile. Are the notifications true? I am confused, and this seems completely against what facebook is about. - YeahItsMe - 11-09-2012 09:59 AM I would say no. I believe i read somewhere in one of the letters from the runners of facebook that those are not correct. - Sashababydoll - 11-09-2012 09:59 AM no it's all b/s! Sadly a lot of ppl believe they can - perfectlybaked - 11-09-2012 09:59 AM Nah, and even if they did, you would probably be disappointed at the result. - immensefeet661 - 11-09-2012 09:59 AM No such applications don't work and Facebook bans applications like those if they are actually made to work. Facebook protects a user's privacy in that manner, so any application created to show users who view their profiles are violating the rules of Facebook.

So all those see who views your profile apps don't actually work... some of them just spew out random friends.
