Spool Focus Web for Snapchat

Snapchat Without Spotlight, Stories or Discover

Remove Snapchat Spotlight, Stories, and Discover inside Spool Focus Web. Keep a more intentional Snapchat web experience without public-content feeds.

Quick answer

Spool can hide Spotlight, Stories, and Discover from Snapchat inside Focus Web. “Discover” is Snapchat’s official name for the recommendation surface—there is no Snapchat feature officially named “Explorer.”

What Spool can remove

  • Spotlight
  • Stories
  • Discover

What remains available

Other supported parts of Snapchat’s web experience remain available inside Focus Web.

Why filter Snapchat instead of blocking it?

Snapchat combines direct social use with public-content surfaces. Spotlight is an endless short-video feed, while Stories and Discover add more recommendation-led paths. Spool lets you remove those paths inside its browser.

How to use Snapchat without Spotlight

  1. Hide Spotlight, Snapchat’s public short-form video feed.
  2. Hide Stories when tapping through the Stories page is the behavior you want to stop.
  3. Hide Discover, Snapchat’s official name for its public-content discovery surface.
  4. Open Snapchat through Focus Web when you want the filtered version rather than the full native app.
