Block Reels, Shorts, home feeds, recommendations, and other algorithmic traps - while keeping messages, search, profiles, posting, and the people you actually care about. Scrolless works in Safari, not a fake in-app browser. No subscription. Pay once, own it forever. Social media is useful. Algorithmic feeds are the problem. Scrolless removes the parts designed to keep you scrolling while preserving the parts you actually want to use. -- Feed Blocker -- Block addictive feeds entirely: Reddit’s front page, YouTube home, Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, Twitter/X timelines, and more. Open specific posts, videos, profiles, searches, and messages when you need them. -- Feed Cleaner -- Some feeds are worth keeping. Feed Cleaner removes suggested posts, sponsored posts, recommendations, and other algorithmic clutter so you see more of what you actually chose to follow. -- The 12-Hour Rule -- Any change that loosens your blocking takes 12 hours to activate. Make your limits when you’re clear-headed - not when you’re bored and trying to scroll. -- Privacy -- Scrolless is 100% tracker free. We don't collect any data about you or your browsing habits, all your data stays on-device. No tracking, no ads, no account, no subscription. -- Why Scrolless is different -- • Works in Safari with your normal tabs, history, and autofill • Keeps DMs, search, profiles, posting, and useful links • Works across Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and more • Custom rules for sites you choose • No account, no tracking, no ads, no data leaving your device • One-time unlock. No subscription.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TapLock card at none against Scrolless's 1. Scrolless's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.5). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
