Blank

Blank is an experiment in what social media could be if it wasn't built to exploit your attention. No algorithms deciding what you see. No ads. No engagement tricks. No infinite scroll. Just people sharing things that matter to them, in the order they shared them. We think your time and your attention are worth more than ad revenue. So Blank doesn't sell them. Instead of paying with your focus, you pay a small subscription — like a phone bill, like water — and in return you get a calm, quiet space that's actually yours. — A CALMER WAY TO SHARE — • Build posts from blocks — write rich text, drop in photos, or record audio. Mix them into something that feels like a page, not a status update. • A chronological feed. You see what the people you follow posted, newest to oldest. That's it. Nothing is reordered to keep you scrolling. • Curate. Collect posts you love into folders and collections worth coming back to. • Explore people and posts through search — not through a machine deciding what's "for you." — BUILT TO RESPECT YOU — • No ads. Not now, not later. • No engagement algorithm. No tricks to keep you hooked. • No data harvesting. Your content and your attention aren't the product. • Privacy by default, with the controls you'd expect: block anyone, report anything, and delete your account — and your data — from inside the app, any time. — HONEST PRICING — Blank is funded by the people who use it, so it never has to answer to advertisers. One subscription covers you, and can be shared with up to five family members through Apple Family Sharing. Try it free, then keep it for a small monthly or annual fee. Welcome to a calmer corner of the internet. — Subscription details: payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions.
