Drunk Mode is an app that stops you from making those late night calls to your girlfriend.

Described as a "condom for your phone", Drunk Mode stops you from doing foolish things with your phone when you have had a few drinks, IBTimes reported.

The new app, created by 23-year-old Joshua Anton, blocks you from calling certain contacts and does not allow you to post on social media networks for up to 12 hours after a drinking session.

It has a feature called "breadcrumbs" that allows you to track group members who disappeared on a night out.

You could also recover Snapchats that you had sent the night before.

The app is on the crowdfunding website Indiegogo, looking to raise funds for release.

The creators have big plans for the future, including adding features like where to get a taxi or bus and a map to tell you where the best parties are, the report added.
