Keep Threads for the post you actually want to see. Stop turning every micro-thought into a surprise scroll session.

Swing creates a funny interruption before Threads opens. It is a simple way to make the automatic tap less automatic without deleting your account.

1. Pick the apps that pull you in

Choose Threads in Swing if opening for one person’s post keeps ending in a feed you did not mean to browse.

2. Finish the iPhone setup

Follow Swing’s on-screen permission setup. This lets Swing show its interruption before your protected app opens, instead of asking your half-awake thumb to be the whole plan.

3. Let Swing catch the first tap

When you tap Threads, Swing catches the moment before the feed does and gives you room to make the next move on purpose.

4. Make the call

Close the app, or unblock it for a while. Threads and your login stay on your iPhone.

Quick answers

Do I have to delete the app?

No. Swing adds an interruption before a protected app opens. Your app, account, and data stay on your iPhone.

Can I still use it when I need to?

Yep. You choose whether to leave the app or unblock it for a while. Swing is there to interrupt the reflex, not run your life.

What should I protect first?

Start with the app that most often turns a quick check into a missing hour. One honest choice beats a huge list you will never use.

Download Swing on the App Store or browse the scroll-less guides.
