NoReels - Block Reels & Shorts

No endless feed. No more doomscrolling.

NoReels strips Instagram and YouTube of the parts designed to keep you hooked, and leaves you with what you actually came for.

And if that's not enough, it locks the app entirely.

WHAT GOES AWAY

• Short videos: Reels and Shorts
• The Explore grid and "Suggested for you"
• Ads and sponsored posts
• The pull that turns two minutes into forty

WHAT STAYS

• Your messages
• The people you actually follow
• Profiles you open on purpose
• Videos someone sends you

If someone sends you a video, it plays just like normal. There's just no next one waiting behind it. That's exactly the difference between a quick look and half an hour that's gone.

IF THAT'S NOT ENOUGH

Other apps of this kind stop working the moment you close them and open the real app. NoReels doesn't.

Using Apple's Screen Time, you lock the real apps across your entire device:

• Daily limits: Give an app a time budget. Once it's used up, the app closes.
• Focus schedules: Lock on a schedule, like 9 to 5 on weekdays.
• Per weekday: Saturday can have a different limit than Tuesday.

PERFECT FOR

• Anyone who doesn't want to delete Instagram but wants the Reels gone
• Students trying to stay focused in the library
• People with ADHD looking for an anchor
• Anyone who snaps out of it at night and has no idea where the hour went

PRIVACY, HONESTLY

The part that reveals the most about you never leaves your iPhone. What you view in your feed, what's on the pages, which apps you lock and how long you use them: all of it stays local. Filtering happens on the device. Your login credentials go directly to Instagram or YouTube and never pass through us.

An account is optional and only exists for two things: so support can reply to you, and so your votes on the roadmap belong to you. It stores your name, your email address, and your profile picture. Without signing in, everything else works exactly the same.

No analytics, no ad tracking, no data brokers.

Blocking Reels and Shorts stays free. That is what the app is for.
