Social Purge
Deletes social apps from your phone and pings you when they quietly come back
Detects Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, Snapchat, Reddit, LinkedIn, Threads, BeReal, and doom-shopping apps like Temu and AliExpress, then removes whichever you tick through Android's own confirmation dialog — it never uninstalls anything by itself. If a purged app quietly reappears, you get a notification with one-tap removal, or you can snooze the reminder for 24 hours if you need the app briefly. Messaging apps like WhatsApp and Telegram are listed separately and never selected by default, and the app says it can only see the specific apps on its curated list, not your full app inventory — no account, no analytics.
What holds up
- +Watches for reinstalls and flags them with one-tap removal — most blockers stop at the first delete
- +Every removal goes through Android's own confirm dialog — the app never uninstalls anything itself
- +Only sees apps on its curated list, not your full app inventory — no account, no analytics
Mind the limits
- −Android only, per the confirmation-dialog flow — no iPhone version mentioned on the page
- −Only tracks apps on its curated list — a new distracting app outside that list goes unnoticed
