## Description

Hide Shorts, Reels, recommendations, reactions and other distractions—while keeping the useful parts of social media available in Safari.

Simple Social helps you use social media more intentionally in Safari. Instead of blocking entire platforms, choose exactly which distracting features disappear and keep the useful parts available.

Customise YouTube, Instagram, X/Twitter, Reddit, LinkedIn, Facebook and TikTok with controls for feeds, recommendations, short-form video, reactions, comments, navigation items and more.

Build healthier browsing habits with:

- Selective blockers for each supported website
- Daily time limits and optional on-screen counters
- Mindful check-ins that encourage a moment of reflection
- Scheduled blocking for work, study or sleep
- Greyscale mode to reduce visual stimulation
- Custom website blocking
- Face ID or Touch ID protection for settings
- iCloud settings sync across your Apple devices

Simple Social works locally as a Safari Web Extension. It does not collect analytics, browsing history or page content, and no account is required.

Simple Social affects websites opened in Safari. It cannot modify native social-media apps.
