About this app

Stop doom-scrolling. Start living. Short-form video feeds are engineered to keep you scrolling. YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok, and Snapchat Spotlight use algorithmic loops that exploit dopamine-driven reward cycles — averaging over 90 minutes of unplanned screen time per day. Shortless gives you back the choice. Unlike generic content blockers, Shortless targets only short-form video feeds. You keep full access to YouTube videos, Instagram photos, Snapchat messages, and everything else — we just remove the addictive infinite scroll. WORKS IN SAFARI Shortless works in Safari on iPhone and iPad, where it removes short-form feeds from the YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat websites. iOS doesn't let any app reach inside the native TikTok, Instagram, YouTube or Snapchat apps, so those apps aren't affected. CHOOSE WHAT TO BLOCK Independent toggles for YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok, and Snapchat Spotlight. Block one, block all, or anything in between. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS See how much time you've reclaimed with our Time Reclaimed dashboard. View daily, weekly, and monthly blocking trends with interactive charts. Build a scroll-free streak and watch it grow. SET YOUR GOALS During onboarding, tell us how much time you spend on short-form video. We'll calculate the impact and help you set a personal reduction goal — from 25% to full detox. HOME SCREEN WIDGETS Glanceable progress right on your home screen and lock screen. See your streak, daily blocks, and time reclaimed at a glance. TWO LAYERS OF PROTECTION • Content Blocker — Blocks short-form URLs and hides UI elements before they load • Web Extension — Catches dynamically loaded content in single-page apps PRIVACY FIRST Shortless collects zero personal data. No analytics, no tracking, no accounts. Everything runs on your device. We have no servers — there's nowhere for your data to go.
