I recently finished working on a mod for Instagram which allows users to disable the features that they find most distracting. You can choose to disable the feed, explore page, reels, or shopping, and you can lock in your choice too if you feel like you might relapse.

I built this app for myself because Instagram is the main way that my friends stay in touch, and its also the best place for me to share all of my travel photos. I don't really like the feed, but I kept finding myself scrolling endlessly even though I didn't want to.

I then realized that there's a lot of other people out there who could get some benefit from it too, so I decided to publish it online. It's completely free and you can download it here:

I'd love to hear your feedback on it.

UPDATE: I just released a new version with some new features that people have requested:

Blocking stories

Blocking suggested posts
