The content you want, in the order it was posted. No algorithm deciding what you see next. Narro is a social media curation app. Add the profiles you follow on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook, and LinkedIn — Narro shows their posts in order, with no algorithm, ads, or tracking. Narro replaces the habit, not the apps. Keep Instagram for DMs. Keep TikTok for the funny videos your friend sent you. Keep Facebook for your aunt's birthday. When you reach for one of them out of habit, open Narro instead. Build a feed from the people you actually want to hear from — creators, friends, journalists, researchers, the one account that posts good recipes. Their posts show up in order. Nothing else does. What you get: - One feed, or many. Group profiles however you like: work, friends, news, hobbies. - Posts in chronological order. Newest at the top. That is the whole rule. - All your platforms in one place. Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and LinkedIn. - No algorithm. No ranking, no "for you," no resurfacing old posts to pad the feed. - No ads. Not now, not later. The business model is a subscription, so the product can stay honest. - No tracking. We do not sell your data and we do not need to know what you tapped on. - RSS support export any Narro feed as RSS. - Star the profiles you never want to miss. - Works on iPhone and on the web. Who it is for: People who follow specific accounts on purpose and resent being shown unrelated viral content instead. Power followers, knowledge seekers, students, journalists, and anyone whose feeds stopped feeling like theirs. Try it for 14 days, free. If it does not replace the habit, cancel and nothing follows you out the door. Open Narro instead.
