TapThrough is an iPhone app that shows you exactly which buttons to tap, in order, to take back control of your privacy, settings, and data.
Right now
Strangers can see your Venmo payments.
Snapchat is broadcasting your location.
Google has every place you've been since 2014.
Instagram tells your ex when you're online.
TikTok knows every site you visit, in any browser.
Here's what it looks like
A red circle. Around the exact button to tap.
Every walkthrough is a sequence of real iPhone screenshots, captured on the current iOS, with one annotation per step: a single red circle drawn around the button you tap next. No videos to scrub. No paragraphs to skim. No guessing whether your iPhone looks like the one in the blog post.
- Captured on iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 26.5 — the current public release.
- Recaptured within days of every Apple update.
- Works offline. Walkthroughs ship with the app.
The launch pack
Five things your iPhone apps are doing right now.
Five more in the Privacy pack. Plus four other packs covering family safety, time-savers, battery, and accessibility.
-
01
Venmo shows your payments to strangers.
By default, every payment you send is on a public feed. We show you the three taps to make every transaction private — past, present, and future.
-
02
Snapchat is broadcasting your live location.
Snap Map is on for new accounts by default. Turn on Ghost Mode in four taps and reclaim the right to disappear.
-
03
Google has every place you've been since 2014.
Location History was on by default for years. Delete the whole archive in one tap and stop new logging in three more.
-
04
Instagram tells your ex when you're online.
Activity Status broadcasts the green dot next to your name to anyone you've messaged. Turn it off and disappear politely.
-
05
ChatGPT is training on your conversations.
The default setting on a new ChatGPT account allows OpenAI to use your chats to train future models. The opt-out is one switch deep, in a menu most people never find.
How it works
Three taps. Maybe four.
Swipe through it on your phone.
One step per screen. A red circle around the exact button to tap. No 12-minute YouTube video.
Done.
Most tasks take under a minute. The harder ones take two. That's the whole product.
Who it's for
Whoever's holding this iPhone.
If you just got a new iPhone
Find anything Apple moved, before you give up looking.
Whether you switched from Android, replaced an older iPhone, or you're setting one up for the first time — Wi-Fi, notifications, Apple ID, iCloud backup, Face ID, all the buttons that aren't where they used to be. We have a walkthrough for each. No YouTube detour. No blog post written for iOS 16.
Browse the Free walkthroughs →If you're setting up your kid's first phone
Set it up right the first time. End to end.
Screen Time is the easy part. The hard part is the controls inside the apps your kid actually uses — TikTok Family Pairing, Snapchat Quick Add, who can DM your kid on Instagram, what gets through Safari, which purchases need your approval. Most parents miss half the first time.
See the Family Safety pack →If your apps know more about you than you do
Take back what they're broadcasting by default.
Venmo's payments are on a public feed. Snapchat shares your location with strangers. Google has every place you've been since 2014. The fix for each is three to five taps, on your phone, in under a minute. The Privacy pack covers the ten that matter most.
See the Privacy pack →If your iPhone feels harder than it should
The small fixes that make iOS feel like yours again.
Text too small to read. Battery dies by 3 PM. Storage always full. Notifications you don't remember turning on. The little settings that compound into a phone that actually works for you — instead of one you're constantly fighting.
