Unspiral - Stop scrolling

Keep Instagram. Lose the Reels.
Keep YouTube. Lose the Shorts.

Unspiral is the best way to use the social apps you already have without the endless-loop features that keep pulling you back. Sign in to the real Instagram and YouTube websites inside Unspiral, keep your account, followers, messages, subscriptions and videos, and remove the most distracting parts.

A PAID SUBSCRIPTION IS REQUIRED
Unspiral is a subscription app. Every feature described below requires an active paid subscription, and there is no free version of the app. The annual plan starts with a two-week free trial for eligible Apple Accounts.

INSTAGRAM WITHOUT REELS
• The Reels tab and Reels links are removed
• Open your feed, profiles, Stories, Search, DMs and notifications
• Choose what stays: hide Explore, Stories, suggested posts, saved posts or even the entire home feed
• Turn on DMs Only when you only want messages
• Count posts seen and track time spent

YOUTUBE WITHOUT SHORTS
• Shorts shelves, navigation and Shorts links are removed
• Search for and watch regular videos
• Optionally hide recommendations and comments
• Keep audio playing in the background and use Picture in Picture

BLOCK APPS, KEEP THE USEFUL PARTS
Choose distracting native apps to block with Screen Time while their supported websites remain available inside Unspiral. Start a timed break or create recurring weekly schedules. Turn on Locked In when you do not want an early exit.

Need to post something? Post Mode can open blocked apps for five minutes, with a daily limit you choose.

MORE WAYS TO STAY INTENTIONAL
• Quieter versions of X, Reddit and LinkedIn with customizable controls
• On-device time and post tracking, including a 14-day trend and per-site breakdown
• A Home Screen widget that launches four quieter apps
• Movie Mode for starting a shared locked-in session with a room code
• Flexible home layouts and a default destination for faster access

SUBSCRIPTION PRICING
Unspiral Annual: $29.99 per year, starting with two weeks free
Unspiral Monthly: $4.99 per month, billed from the first day

Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. A subscription renews automatically at the same price unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of that period. Manage or cancel it any time in your Apple Account settings. If you buy a subscription while a free trial is running, the unused portion of the trial is forfeited.
