    I wanted to find a way to use Instagram without ending up scrolling for two hours every time I open the app to see a friend's story. Most screen time apps I found focus on blocking the app itself instead of the addictive feed, so I created this app to allow me to keep using the "healthy" and "social" features and block the infinite scrolling (Reels) After implementing the block on Instagram Reels, I got addicted to YouTube Shorts and Reddit feed. So, I extended the app to cover these as well. To avoid replacing the scrolling for regular feeds, I also added a feature that shows a pop-up when…

    Hey HN, I just launched a free Chrome extension called Stop Reels — it blocks Reels/short videos on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, without breaking other features like messaging or the regular feed. Why I built it Like many people, I found myself endlessly scrolling Reels even when I only opened the apps for something specific. The algorithms are too good at hijacking attention. There are tools to block entire sites, but none I found that just surgically block Reels and Shorts — and leave the rest of the platform functional (DMs, posts, marketplace, etc). So I built…

    I wanted something simple to capture my day to day life without having to create montages manually. So I built Snappit. Record 5 seconds every day. The app automatically compiles them into weekly, monthly, and yearly montages. No sign up. No account. No server. Everything stays on your phone. The constraint is the feature. 5 seconds is low enough friction that you actually do it, but enough to capture the texture of a day. Built with Kotlin Multiplatform (Android + iOS from a shared codebase). Happy to answer questions about the tech or the product. Feedback welcome.
