This high-tech eHarmony 'Bad Date Rescue' app is an incredibly welcomed innovation helping iPhone users make a clean break from dates that are going sour.
Though many similar apps exist with the intention of saving poor souls from awkward interactions, this one goes a couple steps further. In addition to being beautifully designed with superhero graphics, the app allows users to time an emergency call, and programs your phone to actually pop up with the caller ID of whatever person you select to be in need of your immediate attention.
Though perhaps a little bit ill-intentioned, this app is a great promotional tool for the dating site, and will likely get more than a few downloads from fearful daters.
