A safer way to follow social media: only the profiles you approve

Only what you approved.
Nothing you didn't.

Narro is user-curated social media. Add the profiles you want to follow on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook, or LinkedIn, and Narro shows their posts newest first. You do not need accounts on those platforms, and Narro has no comment sections, no messaging, and no recommendations.

That makes it a safer way to follow the people you chose.

What is a safer way to follow social media accounts?

Narro is a user-curated social media app. Add the public profiles you want to follow, and it shows only their posts, in order, with no algorithm, no comment sections, no direct messages, and no recommendations. You do not need platform accounts, so no platform builds a profile of you through Narro.

Safe by design, not a filter

Only what you approved can appear

A feed contains exactly the profiles you added. There's no recommendation engine, no trending tab, no "suggested for you."

No comments, no DMs

Narro shows posts without their comment sections, and it has no messaging. There's no way for a stranger to reach you through the app.

No platform accounts

Narro follows public profiles without a platform login. No account means no engagement history, no interest profile, no ad targeting.

A feed that ends

Posts appear newest first. When you've caught up, the feed stops. No infinite scroll.

Click-outs open signed out

Some posts are best viewed on the platform, so Narro links out to the browser. With no account, you arrive signed out: no personalized feed, no DMs, nothing learning from the visit.

A safer setup

Limits on a platform feed still leave the algorithm, the comments, and the DMs in place. Reading the same profiles in Narro leaves them out.

  1. Open Narro instead of the platform feeds

    The algorithm, the comments, and the DMs live in the TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook apps. Narro has none of them. Whether the apps stay on the device is up to you.

  2. Skip the accounts

    Narro follows public profiles without a platform account. Nothing to log into, so no platform builds a profile about you through Narro.

  3. Add the accounts worth keeping

    The creators, teams, friends, and publications you'd miss. They're the only thing that will appear in the feed.

  4. Open Narro instead

    The same accounts, without the algorithm, comments, or DMs.

For a teen, or for yourself

Whether the feed is a teen's or your own, it works the same way: the profiles that were added, their posts, and nothing else.

What you get without platform accounts

  • Only posts from the profiles you added. Nothing recommended, nothing trending.
  • No comment sections, no direct messages.
  • No platform accounts, so no ad profile and no engagement tracking.
  • Posts in order, in a feed that ends.
  • One setup covers Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

Common questions

Is Narro safer than using Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook directly?
Narro is user-curated social media. It shows only the posts from profiles that were added to a feed, newest first. There are no comment sections, no direct messages, no recommendations, and no platform accounts. If a profile wasn't added, its posts can't appear.
Do I need Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook accounts to use Narro?
No. Narro follows public profiles on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook, and LinkedIn without a platform login. You can follow the profiles without creating those accounts.
Can content I didn't approve show up in the feed?
No. A feed contains exactly the profiles you added. An added profile shows whatever it posts, so the real curation decision is which profiles you trust enough to add.
Are there comments or direct messages in Narro?
No. Narro shows posts without their comment sections, and it has no messaging, so there's no way for a stranger to reach you through the app.
What happens when a post links out to the platform?
It opens in the browser, signed out. There's no platform account, so no personalized feed, no DMs, and no algorithm learning from the visit.
Does Narro track viewers or build an interest profile?
No. Narro doesn't track users, doesn't sell data, and doesn't rank posts by engagement. Posts appear newest first.
Can teenagers use Narro?
Narro is for ages 13 and up. A teen's feed works like anyone's: added profiles only, no comments, no DMs, no recommendations.
How is this different from a parental-control or screen-time app?
Those tools limit time on platform feeds that keep their algorithm, comments, and DMs. Narro has no comments, DMs, or recommendations. It is a feed of added profiles only, not a monitoring tool.

Keep the accounts you love. Leave out the rest.
