WHAT IT BLOCKS • Instagram: Reels, home feed, Explore, and more • YouTube: Shorts, recommendations, comments and more • Reddit: Home, Popular and more WHAT STILL WORKS • Instagram: DMs, story replies, search, commenting on your own posts • YouTube: search, normal videos, mini player • You stay in the official Instagram and YouTube apps — not stuck in a browser-only workaround WHO IT'S FOR Anyone who needs messages, posting, and search — but wants the addictive feeds gone. Students, creators, and anyone tired of deleting apps just to get their evening back. Scroll Less also includes tools for intentional browsing and app blocking sessions when you want a harder break.
