This App Stops You From Being Subjected To Spoilers Of Your Favourite TV Show Online

Finally, we won't have to hide from Twitter anymore.

In the modern world of technology and hectic schedules, we’re no longer restricted to watching our TV shows to a set schedule.

We can now bulk record, stream and catch-up at a time that suits us… complete with a glass of wine and preferably a slice of pizza dangling in hand.

There’s only one downside to this little lifestyle advancement: Spoilers.

There’s a little place in hell for people who ruin a major plot twist without any fair warning.

Every Facebook Timeline, Twitter feed and online news site who think they’re being smart – YOU’RE RUINING IT.

*FYI: We do give a heads up for any spoilers*

Now there’s a handy extension for Google Chrome that’s about to solve all your problems.

The extension, aptly called Spoiler Alert, lets you turn on alerts for different shows as you please.

Your browser then blocks out every image, story or spoiler for the shows you’ve selected – meaning everything from Lucy Beale’s murderer to who was the last candidate kicked out of Strictly is once again top secret.

It’ll even block out the trending topics on Twitter – just because we all love to go online and have a rant about our latest addiction.

Is it life-saving technology? No.

Will we be downloading it onto our laptops? 100%.
