Algorithm-Free Shared Feed App for Couples

A consumer mobile app targeting couples and families who want to detox from social media. Users share IG/YT links to the app via the native iOS/Android share sheet, which strips the video and adds it to a clean, private, algorithm-free feed for co-watching.
