Open Instagram. See people you follow, not an algorithm.

Stillfeed is a free in-app browser for iPhone that strips Reels, Shorts and Explore from Instagram and YouTube before they load, and puts your Following feed first. No setup, no sign-up, no Screen Time wrangling.

Stillfeed's real Settings screen: Block Reels is on and free; Block Stories, Block Feed, Block DMs, DMs Only and Following only are Pro extras.

What’s free. What’s Pro.

The blocking itself has never required payment. That’s the whole point.

Questions

Is blocking Reels and Shorts really free, or is there a trial?

It’s free, unconditionally, from your first launch: no trial, no payment, no gift period that runs out. Stillfeed Pro is a separate, optional purchase for extras like Stories and Feed blocking, DMs-only mode, and a daily time limit.

Does this delete or modify my Instagram or YouTube account?

No. Stillfeed never touches your account. It loads instagram.com and youtube.com directly and hides certain pages before they render. Your account, followers and posts stay exactly as they were.

Reels and Shorts, gone. Starting now.

Free from your first launch. No setup, no sign-up.
