3. **Build your first custom feed in 2 minutes** Add the creators you actually want to read and MyFeedIn turns that into a distraction-free feed you can open anytime.
4. **Cancel Hootsuite when you're ready** Most users keep both for a week to compare. Once MyFeedIn is part of your routine, cancelling is one click — no lock-in either way.

## FAQ

### I already use Hootsuite — do I need MyFeedIn?

### Which is more affordable?

MyFeedIn starts at $15 a month with a 7-day free trial. Hootsuite starts at $99/month and is designed for larger teams.
