## What is Decaf?

Decaf is a completely free iPhone app I made to help myself stop doomscrolling.

It opens Instagram, Facebook and YouTube with the bits designed to keep you hooked taken out: Reels, Shorts, suggested posts and recommended feeds. Messages, search, posting all still work.

WHAT IT DOES
• Hides Reels, Shorts, the Explore grid, suggested posts and other endless feeds. Each one can be switched back on.
• Shows how long you've spent on each site today, this week and this year.
• Lets you set a daily limit, overall or for each site.
• Quiet hours, when sites won't open at all.
• Slow scrolling: after a few short videos, each swipe takes a little longer.
• Easy to tighten, harder to loosen, so a weak moment doesn't undo a good decision.

PRIVATE
No account, no adverts, no analytics, no tracking. Your settings and history stay on your phone. Decaf connects to nothing but the sites you open.

FREE
No subscription, no premium features, nothing behind a paywall. It's just me making it, in my spare time.

Decaf isn't affiliated with Meta, Instagram, Facebook, Google or YouTube.
