Questions
Let’s make
it clear.
What stays, what goes and how to get started.
The app.
What is Still Social?
Still Social helps a quick check stay quick. Open your existing social accounts inside Still Social to reply, search and watch chosen videos, without endless feeds such as Reels and Shorts.
Does Still Social change my existing social apps?
No. You open your socials inside Still Social and sign in to your existing accounts. It does not modify the native Instagram, YouTube or other social apps. Phone-app blocking adds a separate boundary around opening the original apps, with device permissions.
Can I keep Instagram messages without Reels?
Yes. Instagram in Still Social keeps direct messages, profiles, posts and search while hiding Reels and Explore. Additional controls include Messages only and Hide stories. Social websites can change, so feature availability may vary.
Can I choose my own controls?
Yes. Choose your hours, daily time and the pages you want to use. Some controls require an in-app purchase; available options are shown inside Still Social.
Where can I download Still Social?
Choose iPhone or Android on our download page. Use all ten supported social platforms inside Still Social. Some features require an in-app purchase.
Your day.
Why do I sign in again?
Your native social app and the social website inside Still Social have separate sign-ins. Sign in to the website with your existing account. Your social sign-ins stay on your phone, separate from your Still Social account. Some popup sign-in methods may not work.
Something looks different or is missing.
Still Social opens the platform’s website, which can differ from its native app. Some surfaces are deliberately filtered. Each app guide explains what stays and what goes. Website updates can temporarily affect filters.
Why doesn’t my change happen immediately?
After your first use, changes that loosen daily limits generally wait until tomorrow. Locked rules can make boundaries firmer. Parent changes reach a child when their device checks while connected; offline devices keep saved rules.
Can I use Still Social on a desktop?
Explore the desktop browser companion for Safari on Mac, Chrome and Edge. Its download links are being added. The mobile app has separate browsing and phone-app controls.
Your family.
How do family controls work?
A parent with Still Social Family can link up to five child accounts. Each child keeps their own account. Parents choose daily minutes, hours and available apps. On-device parent PIN controls are also available.
Does my child need their own account?
Yes. Each child signs in to their own Still Social account and joins using your invitation code. You can link up to five children.
Are my child’s conversations shared?
No. Messages, searches, visited pages and viewed content stay private. A parent can choose optional weekly summaries of usage totals, and the child can see when sharing is on.
