What is Stop Reels?
Stop Reels lets you use Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok normally — minus the endless reels and video traps.
Problem
Users want to use Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok without being exposed to addictive Reels content, but manually avoiding Reels is inefficient. Endless, distracting video content reduces productivity and mental focus.
Solution
A browser extension that blocks Reels sections on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Users can scroll feeds normally while avoiding algorithmically pushed short videos.
Customers
Professionals, students, remote workers, and anyone seeking to minimize distractions while using social platforms for essential communication or business purposes.
Unique Features
Platform-specific targeting (Reels/Short Videos only), lightweight integration without disrupting core app functionality, and one-click toggle for temporary access.
