　　Styled as the anti-Tinder, the free app works by asking users to type in their former flame's name and number, along with providing an option to upload a photo。

　　此款神器以反Tinder(Tinder为一款手机交友软件)的风格呈现，可免费使用。用户只需输入分手对象的名字与电话号码，还可以选择是否上传其照片。

　　The app will create a card, similar to ones seen on Tinder, that allows people to swipe right and begin the break up process。

　　These include statements such as 'it's not me, it's definitely you' and 'it's like I'm living in some sort of unwakeable nightmare'。

　　分手理由包括“时至今日都是你咎由自取，绝对是你的错。”以及“我就像活在醒不来的噩梦里。”

　　The soon-to-be former partner will then receive a 37-second-long voicemail explaining to them the reason for the break up。

　　即将成为你前任的那位就会收到一段37秒的语音留言，听到你的分手理由。

　　For someone on the receiving end of the message, they may receive something along the lines of: 'Yeah you're getting dumped. Your boyfriend, em, yeah. I mean, yeah, maybe you deserve more. Maybe you deserve that white picket fence。

　　收到分手信息的人听到的内容可能是这样的：“是的，你被甩了，被你男朋友甩了。呵呵，我觉得他配不上你，那条白色尖桩篱栅才配得上你。”

　　'Maybe you deserve twins. Boris and Doris。

　　“可能双胞胎才配得上你，像Boris和Doris那样的。”

　　'They could live out their days happily without that horrible guy who's dumping you using this app, using me as a vessel to break this to you quite gently。

　　“没有那个用这款软件甩了你的可怕男人，他们可以开开心心地活出一片天，我是温柔的传话筒。”

　　'You're dumped. You're dumped. You're really really dumped. Bind some will say. Bind with Binder now at all good app stores. Bye!'

　　“你被甩了，你被甩了，你真的被甩了。有人可能会觉得很尴尬。马上在应用程序商店下载绑定Binder吧。再见！”

　　Tennent's Lager said it developed the app 'for laughs' during a series of YouTube comedy sketches。

　　As well as the voicemail, a text is sent to make the user's partner gets the message。

　　The current range of messages are designed for male users, but another version of the app, dubbed Bindim, is being developed for women。
