Useful social.
Without the junk.

Clean Social keeps the useful parts of social open and blocks the loops built to keep you scrolling. Keep the useful parts. Block the traps.

Android plus desktop browser extension
CS Distraction blocked

Current MVP rules cover Instagram, YouTube, and Reddit. TikTok appears here as an attention-loop example, not a supported target.

Take back your feed.

Open the app for the reason you came, then leave before the feed starts choosing for you.

You are in control.

Pick what to block, what to allow, and when protection should step aside.

Cleaner social. Better you.

Less noise. More signal. Useful surfaces stay useful.

The door stays open. The loop gets a lock.

Whole-app blockers punish the parts you came for. Clean Social works at the surface level, so the chosen work stays available and the drift gets interrupted.

BlockedPopular and All feed drift

One check turns into twenty minutes.

You open one message and the next surface starts selling you a feed.
You set a timer and end up bargaining with yourself when it expires.
You block the whole app and lose the useful thing you needed.

Keep your reason. Cut the drift.

Supported surfaces are sorted into useful or blocked categories.
Blocked surfaces are covered locally without collecting social content.
The permission and privacy boundary appears before protection starts.

A short setup path that does not hide the tradeoff.

The Android app explains Accessibility use before permission instructions. Local rules then decide which supported surface stays open and which one gets blocked.

CS

Read the disclosure

The app states what it can see, what it ignores, and when enforcement starts.

Choose your first boundary

Start with the surface that costs you the most time, then add more when billing is live.

Check clean diagnostics

Status codes and categories are shown instead of messages, usernames, screenshots, or full URLs.

We build privacy. Not products that spy.

Clean Social keeps the decision narrow: platform, version, surface category, rule version, and decision code. The private parts stay out of logs and payloads.

No social content

No DMs, usernames, comments, posts, search text, notification text, or social account identifiers.

No private captures

No screenshots, raw Accessibility node trees, raw webpage DOM, cookies, passwords, or clipboard contents.

Android shield scoped

Android explicit protection is not marketed until native implementation and platform gates pass.

Simple pricing. Serious privacy.

Android purchases use Google Play Billing inside the app. Desktop checkout uses Stripe after the hosted backend and provider credentials are configured.

Questions? We have got answers.

What does Clean Social block?

Supported trap surfaces such as Reels, Shorts, Reddit Popular, and Windows explicit example-domain fixtures.

Does Clean Social collect my data?

No private social content is collected. Diagnostics stay category-level and redacted.

Will it slow down my browsing?

Browser fixture QA is in place. Production performance still needs beta telemetry that does not collect content.

Can I customize what gets blocked?

Rule setup and modes exist. Live premium expansion waits for billing and backend deployment.

Where can I get help?

Use support with redacted diagnostics only. Do not send private social content.

Is it affiliated with platforms?

No. Clean Social is independent and does not claim affiliation with any social platform.

Start with the loop you already know costs you time.

The local Android and Windows validation paths are built for a privacy-first beta once real-app QA, live billing, hosted backend, and approved store gates are complete.
