About this extension

Protects children from short-form video addiction. Parent-controlled.

Read the publisher’s full description

Stop TikTok & YouTube Shorts on your child's computer — without blocking the rest of the internet. ShortBlock is a parent-controlled extension that kills short-form video the moment your child tries to open it. TikTok is blocked entirely. YouTube Shorts redirects to the YouTube homepage. Instagram Reels media is blocked. Snapchat Spotlight is blocked. Regular YouTube — documentaries, music videos, tutorials — keeps working perfectly. Only the addictive 60-second scroll is stopped. HOW IT WORKS Install the extension on your child's browser. On first launch, set a parent PIN only you know. Protection activates immediately. Your child cannot disable it without the PIN. WHAT IT BLOCKS • TikTok — entire site and app CDN blocked • YouTube Shorts — redirects to YouTube homepage instantly • Instagram Reels — Reels media CDN blocked • Snapchat Spotlight — Spotlight pages blocked WHAT IT DOES NOT BLOCK • Regular YouTube videos • Regular Instagram (photos, stories, DMs) • Regular Snapchat (messages, snaps) PRIVACY Zero data collected. PIN stored only on your device, never uploaded. No account required. No tracking. No ads. Privacy policy: https://tangle-me.github.io/shortblock-site/privacy.html FREE FOREVER No subscription. No account. No upsells.
