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 remains available
Other supported parts of Snapchat’s web experience remain available inside Focus Web.
Why an app limit misses the real problem
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.
Apple Screen Time can limit or block all of Snapchat, but it cannot remove only the specific feeds and tabs listed above. Focus Web changes the experience inside Spool so the useful parts can stay without leaving the main scroll trap one tap away.
How to use Snapchat without Spotlight
- Hide Spotlight, Snapchat’s public short-form video feed.
- Hide Stories when tapping through the Stories page is the behavior you want to stop.
- Hide Discover, Snapchat’s official name for its public-content discovery surface.
- Open Snapchat through Focus Web when you want the filtered version rather than the full native app.
