Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

What do you mean by frozen? What does it do?

It freezes the app preventing background usage.

It's like the "disable" option that you have in system apps. But for user apps. In fact, once you disable them if you search them in play store they appear with an "enable" button.

The advantage is that your userdata is still there. And you can quickly open it (unfreeze) from the Ice Box app.
