Finite sessions
Use Plain for up to 30 minutes, then step away for a three-hour break. A new day or a completed break begins a fresh interval.
More human connection.
Less time online.
Plain is a finite social app for following people, sharing creative work, finding real-world events, and then putting the phone down.
Built for iPhone · No likes · No endless feed
30 minutesThen take a three-hour break.
A real endingCatch up without falling into an infinite scroll.
Social media with
a stopping point.
Following, not performing
Follow people without requiring a mutual connection. Mutual follows become connections. There are no likes or public popularity scores.
Your feed, organized
Create private lists for photographers, writers, athletes, brands, or any group you choose, then filter the feed to one list at a time.
Everything useful.
Less of everything else.
Plain combines the social tools people actually use with intentional limits, creator attribution, and reasons to connect away from the screen.
Discover people and things worth doing.
Search creators and brands by profession, location, account type, and interests. Explore suggested follows, topics, hashtags, and a human-reviewed calendar of real-world events.
- Creator and brand recommendations
- Interest and topic discovery
- Events that can be saved to Calendar
Share the work. Keep the credit.
Publish text, photos, or video; tag collaborators; choose visibility; and control comments. Creator-rights records preserve attribution, while reposts require the creator’s permission when they choose.
- Text, photo, video, and multi-media posts
- People tags and collaboration credits
- Rights records and attributed reposting
Turn connection into creative work.
Creators and brands can exchange proposals, deliverables, revisions, and approvals without an algorithm or marketplace getting between them.
Budgets are informational. Plain does not hold funds or process collaboration payments.
- Creator and brand work profiles
- Proposals and project deliverables
- Approvals and project status in one place
A profile built around the work—not the score.
Show your writing, photography, video, and collaborations in a clean portfolio. Manage followers, lists, notifications, active sessions, privacy controls, exports, and account deletion from one place.
- Photo, video, and collaboration views
- Private lists and mutual connections
- Blocking, muting, reporting, and data controls
Connect as a person.
Create without performing.
Work without the middleman.
Something worth
leaving the feed for.
Plain includes a human-reviewed calendar of real-world events. Anyone can suggest an event, and organizers can manage submissions from their own dashboard.
