Antigram - Explore & Reels Blocker
Extension Actions
- Extension status: Featured
Browser extension to fight back Instagram's addictive features.
Antigram is free and it does not track you or your data.
With Antigram, you will be able to check what your friends are up to without falling into a black hole of distractions and meaningless content.
You can choose to block or hide Instagram's functionalities instantly by using the checkboxes in the extension's settings page. Some of Antigram's capabilities are:
- 🚫 Block Instagram Reels page
- 🚫 Block Instagram Explore page
- 🚫 Block 'Stories' section and page
- 🚫 Eradicate 'Posts' feed
- 🚫 Hide 'Suggested followers' section
- 🚫 Hide 'Threads' links
- 🔀 Redirect always to 'Following' feed, avoiding suggested posts from the 'For you' feed.
Instagram has been designed and optimized to profit from our addiction. We hope that by using the Antigram extension along with uninstalling the app from our phones and following only accounts that we care about, we can have a healthy relationship with social media.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Antigram could be useful to: increase productivity, avoid distractions, avoid "fear of missing out", having a healthier use of social media, reduce social media addiction, use Instagram only to see your feed, only to message people, only to see stories, only to see your friends posts, etc.

- I was trying to find an extension like this for so long! I am so happy that now I will not fall into the IG algorithms sucking me into using it endlessly! Without this extension, my only other option was to delete Instagram for good and lose touch with all my friends there, just because I hate the user experience on Instagram. Thank you for this amazing extension!

- Jeff Wagner
- Love this. When all the options are turned on, instagram feels like social media from 2005: you look just at what you want, and it's not addictive. Plus, it's 100% customizable!
- Jacob Choi
- This is great, thank you for making this. My only suggestion is that similar to what an earlier comment mentioned, even if I have the 'hide Stories section' checkbox unchecked, I am still not able to see my friends' stories, and this seems to be the case whether I check or uncheck all of the boxes.
- Alessandro Francesco Esposito
- I think it's the most useful extension I've ever installed! I find it very useful because you can eliminate the distractions of the reel, explore and feed section but at the same time it allows you to search for other users, thus making navigation with a truly conscious use. It makes you focus only on what you want and not on what the algorithm decides. Great work!
- Drishya bohre
- LOVE THIS SOOO MUCH!! i can acc focus on my important tasks now, do u think this type of thing could also be made into an app for phones?
- Yang L
- Love this extension. Made instagram bearable to even login to again. Could you add an option to also hide the new floating messages bubble?
- Dan Robinson
- This is the greatest extension ever created. For years I've gone without instagram because it is so full of suggested slop and overly-catchy reels. Now I only see posts from people I follow. I've been wishing for something like this for about five years. Thank you!
- Nischay
- Really great! I just would love if there was a way to "Redirect For you feed to Following" while still being able to see my friend's stories.
- Sparsh Daksh
- Just the thing i was looking for, please add it to safari too
- Mya Cole
- Loveeeee
- William Smith
- Works perfectly. To the people who can't view stories, just go to the persons profile and you can view it there. Thank you very much for making this extension.
- michalS

- Larissa Rubega
- Great extension, My Instagram screen time drastically decreased. I have been recommending it to all my friends. The only comment is that the Stories Section is not hidden anymore. Must be a new update.
- Norman Ovens

- Ariyan Rahman

- Kartikey Joshi
- thanks man this is life saving for me
- Kaiser Meng
- Finally. No more mindlessness. No more losing self-awareness for multiple hours a day.
- J Park
- Works great, no more 'suggested' videos on the landing page :) Doesn't hurt the rest of the UI either. However, there is one minor issue: when I enable the "redirect to Following" option, I lose my friends' stories as well, even if the "Hide Stories" option isn't selected. Is there a way we can see the stories while redirecting to the Following feed?

- Crazy extension and those who want something like this for android its https://distractionfreeapps.com/
- Emma Clement
- This extension is amazing. I've had it for a while and it's *extremely* helpful. I'd love an app version that does the same thing on my phone as well, although I have no idea how difficult it would be to develop that.
- Marcos Petrucci
- Awesome! Exactly what I wanted, it blocks all the distractions of Instagram and I finally feel in control of what I consume. Thanks

- Francesco Boccardo
- Nice extension, but there's a little bug: if i enable the option to redirect "for you" feed to "following", the stories (which i would like to keep) are also hidden, even if the option to hide them is disabled
- simone crater
- This is AMAZING! The flexibility in settings is brilliant as well. Thank you thank you thank you.
