About this app

Social media that puts you back in control.

UpScrolled is independent social media built around the people who use it. Connect safely, share freely, build community. No data sales, no surveillance, no shadowbans, no algorithm working against you.

CONNECT SAFELY: your data, your rights

We do not sell your data, train AI on it, or build surveillance profiles. Delete your account and your data goes with you. Privacy is built in, not bolted on.

SHARE FREELY: your voice, unfiltered

No shadowbanning. No invisible suppression. Your reach is set by the community you built, not an algorithm chasing someone else's agenda. Post and be seen.

BUILD COMMUNITY: your people, your feed

Chronological by default. The accounts you chose to follow, in the order they posted. Discovery surfaces fresh voices alongside established ones, no pay-to-play.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Chronological feed you control
• Post text, photos, short and long videos
• Built-in video editing tools to make content your way
• Real-time chat to message anyone, anytime
• Daily stories from people you follow
• Trending topics and Global Awareness categories
• Profile customisation that reflects who you are
• Transparent moderation aligned to published Community Guidelines
• Verification you can trust
• Privacy controls built in from day one
• Tools to mute, block and report that work
• English, Arabic, Spanish, Italian, French and German

FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO

• Post knowing the rules are clear and applied evenly
• Step away from algorithms that put engagement above wellbeing
• Support independent creators
• Be part of a real community of people who want a better internet

Built independently.

I have been using this app for 2 months now. It was working great until a few days ago when suddenly all the pictures in my feed were covered. I can view videos but not pictures. I just see a white triangle covering the hazy picture. If its a bug, kindly fix it. I updated the app and even deleted and reinstalled but it didn't fix the issue. Update: Issue resolved. Appreciate the speedy response

The feed design is a little hard to parse; it would be nice to have clearer separation between posts so it's easier on the eyes. Also, please add an option to remove followers without blocking them and allow us to backdate posts, especially since a lot of us are migrating from Instagram. I think some others have already mentioned adding music to posts. Overall, thanks for making an ethical alternative. Looking forward to seeing it develop!

I just joined and so far I like the idea of a platform that doesn't censor, I like the AI labels, the layout is nice and simple to navigate, however I would like to know if there is a PC version coming? My phone just isn't really strong enough to edit like I would like to (because it's a cheap one) but my laptop is and thats where all my video and photo editing software is that I use to digitize my drawings and put together random farm vids
