Block Instagram's feed.
Keep your DMs.

Instagram's feed and Explore are the trap. Refocus blocks them and keeps your messages — or blocks the whole site when you need a hard stop. Add a daily limit or a night schedule so it can't creep back.

How it works

  1. Block instagram.com — or just the feed/Explore — in one click.
  2. Keep DMs and specific profiles if you want.
  3. Add a daily limit or a night cutoff. Free, local, no account.

The idea: block the feed, not the site

Every other blocker is all-or-nothing. Refocus blocks just the infinite-scroll surface and keeps the messages, search and pages you actually need — so it actually holds. 100% local: no account, nothing leaves your browser. Free forever.
