Technology has evolved and ensured the smallest of needs are taken care of in the click of a button. According to reports,there's an app that lets your rough up someone and it’s been downloaded more than 40,000 times.

The app has recently been removed from Chinese app stores because people were using it to arrange real-life beatings by real-life hitmen for hire. People believe the idea may have spawned from Didi Da Ren, or Didi Hit People – a satirical app released in February by a Chinese online talk show as a parody of how angry people go to unethical lengths to get revenge on someone.

The app's developer, Changsha, denied any connection with the satirical video about an app for hiring thugs, which shows a nurse, a schoolgirl and a schoolboy using it to hire tough guys to beat up bullies.

Reportedly, the app was available on Android app stores and other third-party app stores including 360, Wandoujia and Xiaomi.
