Description
Binky is the most stress-free social media app ever! Think about all those times when you want to scroll through a feed on your phone, but you don't want to read depressing news articles or see photos from people who seem happier than you. Binky gives you the incessant micro-thrills of scrolling through stuff, never knowing what's coming next, without all the hassle. And the things you do in Binky don't end up on a server somewhere for the world to see. It's all the fun of social media with all the privacy you wish you had!
Features:
* An infinite list of random stuff (we call them "Binks"), with pictures. You won't care about some of them, but others will give you a fleeting feeling of satisfaction -- just like a real app!
* Each Bink has a Like button so that you can like it, just like a real app!
* Swipe left or right on Binks, because it's weirdly satisfying, just like a real app!
* Leave a comment! Unlike a real app, you don't have to stress about what to say. Just mash the keyboard and Binky will think of an appropriate comment for you! Where's THAT feature, Facebook?
* A "share" button that doesn't do anything!
* Scroll through over a thousand Binks, including: sawdust, Sam Cooke, rutabagas, laser tag, merman, mascara, puddles, and elbow.
If you read all the way through that last bullet point, you're already hooked. Download it today!
What’s New
Version 1.4.0

Ratings and Reviews
Pretty good
Should add notifications. Don't let them show up until you open the app but have a little mailbox icon or something with random numbers of notifications you can check. They will be totally pointless of course. Just have them say, "you have a notification!" Or something.
Developer Response ,
Good idea! I plan to add more stuff like that.
Just what I need to not jump on that IG wormhole
Sometimes I feel like I just need to scroll but I don’t actually want to be on social media! This is exactly what I need for that! No social media nonsense just the satisfaction of scrolling. Hey, gotta take it one step at a time. And this is the first step for me. Great idea!
My only suggestion is that it’s kind of difficult to actually get the posts to swipe away. Maybe there is some way to make them swipe away more smoothly?
ocd tool
Got diagnosed with OCD recently and excessive scrolling on sites is a symptom of mine. Like completely unintentional 13-hour stretches with no break till my eyes hurt kind of thing. I’m learning to embrace the discomfort of not giving into those urges, but at times when the anxiety is too much to bear, this is a good mediator. It keeps me aware of the fact that my brain wants mindless scrolling, not a real urgent task to complete. Thank you for this app.
