Compliments + Ideas

I think this app works well for what is it set out to do. HOWEVER, when I go to Instagram, the user experience is very poor (e.g. slow typing, unable to easily reply or heart messages). So, when I am in a quick conversation with a group of people, I need to navigate back to the native app (and get exposed to reels once again). I think that if the user experience for Instagram (and other potential apps), then this would certainly help me cut out scrolling.

Other then that, I really like Scrollguard

Stop doomscrolling

Just use marketplace, no reels :)

Love it but apps can be glitchy

Apps can be glitchy at times. Insta is probably the worst. But other than that I am happy with the app and I have deleted all socials and primarily going through this.

Does not work

most features charge and when I installed the widget I still had reels.

Dms

Autoscrolls up when trying to type dms and therefor you cant see what you are typing. its super annoying
