The honest part

The feed was built by thousands of engineers whose only job is keeping you on.

You were one person with a thumb.

↳ never a fair fight. so we evened it out.

How it works

You keep your apps. You don't delete anything. Yava just takes the bait out.

  1. step 1

    Pick your apps.

    Choose which apps Yava should tame. Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, whichever ones get you.

  2. step 2

    Flip off the feed.

    Turn off Reels, Shorts, For You, Explore and ads, piece by piece. Keep whatever you actually use.

  3. step 3

    Reply. Then leave.

    Your DMs and friends are right there. With nothing to fall into, you're in and out.

Same app. Minus the trap.

Yava doesn't block Instagram. It blocks the parts designed to keep you there.

for the harder days

When willpower clocks out, Yava doesn't.

Cold turkey

Lock an app for an hour, a day, a weekend. No "just five more minutes" button.

Schedules

Bedtime, work hours, dinner. Set it once and your phone gets quieter on its own.

Insights

See the reels you didn't watch and the hours you got back. Weirdly motivating.

Notes from people who got their evenings back.

"Instagram without Reels is a different app. I check my DMs and I'm out."
Maya, 24
"The first hour of my day used to vanish into Shorts. Now it's coffee and a book."
Daniel, 31
"I didn't want to delete TikTok. I just wanted it to stop eating my nights. This did it."
Priya, 19

Fair questions.

Does Yava block the whole app?
No. You still use Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Just without the endless feeds built to keep you there.
Do I have to delete anything?
Nope. Your apps, accounts, followers and messages stay exactly as they are.
What if I actually want to watch something?
Search still works, so you can find exactly what you came for. And any filter can be switched back on whenever you like.

Still on the fence? Set it up tonight and see how your evening feels. Cancel in two taps if it's not for you.
