What can I hide on Facebook?
When you open Facebook inside minulo, you can hide the following, one item at a time. You can change what is hidden at any time.
- Reels and Watch
- The home feed
- Marketplace
- The "Open app" banner
What still works after hiding?
Notifications, Messages, Friends and Feed open straight from the minulo home screen. Everything you have not hidden works like the Facebook website.
How do I set it up?
- Install minulo from the App Store.
- On the home screen, tap "Add a service" and choose Facebook.
- Tap the gear next to Facebook and turn on what you want to hide.
- To stop the official app too, open the "Block" tab, allow Screen Time, and choose Facebook in "Apps to block".
What happens to the official Facebook app?
minulo uses iPhone Screen Time to stop the official Facebook app from opening. When you try to open it, a "Blocked" screen appears, and its "Open minulo" button takes you to minulo. Blocking is free.
Is it free?
Hiding content on Facebook and blocking the official app are free. Schedules that switch automatically by day and time, Locked Mode and multiple block lists are part of minulo Pro.
