Stop losing hours to Instagram Reels, Reddit threads, Facebook feeds and endless scrolling. UNDOOMED hides the addictive parts and keeps what matters. Browse Instagram without Reels. Read Reddit without the infinite feed. Use Facebook without Stories. SEVEN NETWORKS SUPPORTED • Instagram — Hide Reels, Stories, Explore and suggested posts. Messages Only mode goes straight to your DMs. • Threads — Hide the home feed, feed tabs, follow suggestions, activity and replies. Read only the accounts you chose. • Reddit — Hide infinite scroll, the Popular tab and endless recommendations. Browse without the rabbit hole. • Facebook — Remove Reels, Stories, Watch and Marketplace noise. Keep Groups and Messenger. • X (Twitter) — Hide the For You timeline, Trends and Who to follow.

Messages Only mode for focused professional use. NOT SUPPORTED: TIKTOK AND SNAPCHAT Both appear in the network list, but neither can be switched on. Their web versions expose too little to filter usefully, so UNDOOMED marks them unavailable instead of pretending to help. 85 FILTERS 33 are free.

No app modification, no jailbreak, no VPN, no risky permissions. UNDOOMED does not modify third-party apps and is not affiliated with any social network. Take back your time.

Which makes sense, it never asked any permission to control my other apps, so I don’t know how it would be able to work with them. Bummer. **Developer response:** Sorry for the confusion — UNDOOMED can't modify other apps (iOS doesn't allow that). Instead, it *is* the app: open Instagram, YouTube or Facebook inside UNDOOMED and you get them without Reels, Shorts or the endless feed. Give it another try, and if anything's unclear, reach us at support@undoomed.app. ### 1/5 — 작동이 안되는거 같은데요 *2026-07-25* 인스타그램 릴스를 꺼버리는 버튼이 있어서 활성화 해봤는데 되는게 없어요 제가 잘못쓰고 있는건지 아닌지 모르겟네요 **Developer response:** 불편을 드려 죄송합니다. UNDOOMED는 다른 앱을 제어하는 방식이 아니라, UNDOOMED 앱 안에서 인스타그램을 열면 릴스 없이 사용할 수 있는 방식입니다. 공식 인스타그램 앱이 아닌 UNDOOMED 안에서 열어 보세요. 문제가 계속되면 support@undoomed.app 으로 알려 주세요. ### 2/5 — It doesn’t seem to work on iOS *2026-07-19* I want this to work, but so far it isn’t. It isn’t disabled in the app or on the browser (where I need it disabled). I don’t want to have to be in this app to view content, I thought this was a browser extension. **Developer response:** Thanks for the honest feedback. UNDOOMED isn't a browser extension — iOS doesn't allow modifying other apps or Safari that deeply. It works as a distraction-free client: open Instagram/YouTube inside UNDOOMED itself. We know that's a different workflow than expected; if you try it that way and hit issues, tell us at support@undoomed.app. ### 5/5 — 100/10 *2026-07-03, version 1.2.0* I don't usually read reviews, but this app changed my life. ### 2/5 — No notification *2026-06-09* Doesn’t offer notifications for Instagram dms **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback — you're right, DM notifications aren't supported yet; it's one of the most requested features and it's on our list. Feel free to share other requests at support@undoomed.app. ### 5/5 — Solution I’ve Been Needing :) *2026-05-31* So this app is amazing and has definitely helped me stop doom scrolling and being on socials refreshing all the time! I have a couple issues which is just how the socials operate, but I believe it’s some things out of the Devs controls. I would however love to see a bypass for sending messages to sellers on Marketplace without the ‘Download the app’ prompt. Other than that everything has been amazing! **Developer response:** Thank you, really glad it's helping with the doomscrolling! The Marketplace 'download the app' prompt when messaging sellers is a limitation of the web version we run under the hood, we haven't found a clean workaround yet but we keep poking at it. ### 2/5 — 어캐 쓰는 거임 *2026-05-31* ?? **Developer response:** 안녕하세요! Undoomed는 인스타그램/유튜브 앱을 그대로 여는 게 아니라, Undoomed 안에서 열어야 릴스/쇼츠가 차단됩니다. 앱 안의 인스타그램 아이콘을 눌러서 사용해 보시고, 그래도 어려우시면 contact@undoomed.app 으로 알려주세요. ### 5/5 — Fantastic App! *2026-05-20* This is something I’ve been searching for a very long time. I’ve been using opal but I’m completely switching to this! Fantastic idea to incorporate the website versions into this app itself! Fantastic work dev you’re truly helping people save there time. **Developer response:** Thank you, that means a lot coming from someone who switched from Opal! Glad the in-app web versions are working well for you. ### 5/5 — Fixing the internet. *2026-05-18* Short form content is my kryptonite. I’ve been attempting to manage it for years but I can’t do it, but deleting everything altogether isn’t my top choice. I found this app via a Reddit comment and promptly found it’s everything I wanted: a way to get rid of short form video while still letting me access other parts of the app. And the price is so reasonable. My biggest fear is that this won’t get enough traction and shut down, so I’m writing this review to support! **Developer response:** Thank you for writing this, reviews like yours are exactly what keeps a small project like this going. We're not going anywhere. ### 1/5 — Does not work as advertised *2026-05-16* Does not work. Appears to be a scam. They do not respond to emails. **Developer response:** Sorry you had this experience, and sorry if an earlier email went unanswered, that shouldn't happen. Undoomed works by opening Instagram/YouTube inside the app itself rather than modifying the native apps, which trips people up if they weren't expecting it. Please try contact@undoomed.app again, we do read and answer every message. ## Frequently asked questions about UNDOOMED ### What does UNDOOMED do?
