Safari only, not the apps. Apple doesn't let extensions change the YouTube or Reddit apps. Curb works on the websites inside Safari. If a link opens an app, open the site in Safari instead.
One-minute setup
Three steps. Then it just works.
Enable Curb in Safari
Open Safari's extension settings and switch Curb on. Tick “Allow in Private Browsing” while you're there.
About Safari's warning — Safari may show a yellow warning about “reading and altering webpages.” That is Apple's standard language for any extension that hides page content — including Curb. Curb uses it only to remove feeds on sites you allow. Curb has no access to your accounts, passwords, or personal data — nothing leaves your device. No servers, no analytics. App Store label: Data Not Collected.
Set websites to Allow
This is the step people miss. Change permission from “Ask” to “Allow” for each site — or Allow on All Websites.
About Safari's warning — On the Websites screen, Safari may say the extension can “see your browsing history.” That is generic Apple wording for any extension with site access — not a capability Curb has or uses. Curb cannot see your accounts, browsing history, or personal data. Feed blocking runs entirely on your device; nothing is collected or transmitted.
Visit a site. Check it.
Open youtube.com, reddit.com, linkedin.com, x.com, instagram.com or facebook.com in Safari. The feed should be gone and a centered Curb guide appears. Works signed in or out.
Privacy
We can't see what you browse. Literally.
The Curb app collects nothing — App Store label: Data Not Collected. This marketing site uses anonymous usage analytics (Vercel, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity). It never runs in Safari and never sees what you browse.

Common questions
- Does it work in the YouTube or Reddit app?
- No — and no extension can. Curb only works on websites inside Safari. Open the site in Safari, not the native app.
- Do I need to be signed in?
- No. Curb hides the feed whether you're signed in or signed out.
- Does it block search or subscriptions?
- No. Only the endless home feed goes quiet. Search, messages, subscriptions and pages you open directly all keep working.
- Why does Safari warn that Curb can read my browsing history?
- Apple shows the same boilerplate for every Safari extension that can modify webpages. Curb needs that permission to hide feed elements on the sites you enable. Curb has no access to your browsing history, accounts, or personal data — nothing is collected and nothing leaves your device. App Store privacy label: Data Not Collected.
- What data does Curb collect?
- None in the app. No accounts, no servers, no app analytics. Everything stays on your device. This website uses anonymous usage analytics (Vercel, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity) — never your Safari browsing.
- Which devices are supported?
- iPhone, iPad, and Mac — anywhere Safari runs on iOS or macOS.
- What if a site updates and blocking stops?
- Platforms change their layouts sometimes. Curb shows a notice in the Safari popup when a site may need an update. Email support@curbblocker.com — tell us the site and your device. We ship fixes through the App Store. You paid once; we keep it working.
- Still stuck after setup?
- Email support@curbblocker.com and we'll help you get it working.
Keep the site.
Lose the feed.
