For instance, on YouTube, you have the option to conceal recommended videos, shorts, comments, and more. Similarly, on Facebook and Instagram, you can hide the feed, reels, stories, and other elements. The same goes for each supported site.\n\nFurthermore, SocialFocus offers an array of supplementary features, including Startup Settings, Import / Export and more.\n\nUsers who want to support the development of the project can additionally subscribe to the PRO version. The PRO version will give access to some additional features that are not available in the standard version, such as hotkey configuration, settings synchronization and some others. \n\nNOTE: This extension does NOT work with the apps, it works only for websites while using the Safari browser.\n\nTerms Of Use: https://socialfocus.app/tos/","facts":{"developer_id":1592732760,"developer_url":null,"first_released":"2022-12-24T08:00:00Z","support_url":"https://socialfocus.app/support/","privacy_url":"https://socialfocus.app/privacy/","website_url":null,"app_version":"7.7","release_notes":"Thanks for choosing SocialFocus!
