FocusGram

Use social media on your terms.

Most people don't want to quit Instagram. They want to check their messages, post a story, and leave — without losing an hour to Reels they never meant to watch.

FocusGram is an Android app that loads the Instagram website with the distracting parts removed. No private APIs. No data collection. No accounts. Just a cleaner way to use a platform you already use.

What it does : Focus tools

• Block Reels entirely, or allow them in timed sessions (1–15 min) with daily limits and cooldowns
• Autoplay blocker — videos won't play until you tap them
• Minimal Mode — strips everything down to Feed and DMs

Content filtering

• Hide the Explore tab, Reels tab, or Shop tab individually
• Disable Explore and blur posts entirely
• Disable Reels entirely

Habit tools

• Screen Time Dashboard — daily usage, 7-day chart, weekly average
• Grayscale Mode — reduces the visual pull of colour; can be scheduled by time of day
• Session intentions — optionally set a reason before opening the app

The app itself

• Feels (almost) like a native app, not a browser
• No blank loading screen — content loads in the background before you get there
• Instant updates via pull-to-refresh
• Dark mode follows your system
