- Rated 5 out of 5by mados123, 3 months agoExcellent, simple tool to block impulses towards procrastination. Really helped me with a bad loop I was in. *Do not* click the options Show On/Off Buttons and Show Pause Buttons in Popup for maximum efficacy :-)
- Rated 5 out of 5by domo, 3 months agoThis is the best add-on to block sites.
Simple and Easy
Awesome!
I will use this add-on forever. - Rated 5 out of 5by Rudolf_Snail, 5 months agoWorks very well and it doesn't have the bug that Digital Detox has. Although it doesn't have websites blocked by default, when you download it.

- Rated 1 out of 5by adtykhndlwl, a year agoThe extension takes permission to read ALL contents of ALL webpages we visit includings passwords or other data enter thereo
- Rated 5 out of 5by Double_Dead, a year agoTried like 5 other ones and they didn't work but this one works perfectly
- Rated 3 out of 5by Jan, a year agoDas Add-On tut was es soll: Es blockiert die Nutzung von Webseiten. Das Hinzufügen von neuen Webseiten ist einfach und intuitiv und der Pause-Modus prinzipiell sinnvoll. -> 4 Sterne
Ein Stern Abzug, weil nach Ablaufen der Pausezeit geöffnete Webseiten nicht blockiert werden und die es keine Möglichkeiten gibt die Pausenzeiten besser zu konfigurieren. - Rated 4 out of 5by Evert Pot, a year agoUpdating my review: Add-on didn't do anything initially but after a restart seems to work!
Some UX suggestions:
* It's unclear if 'Block' and 'Allow' turn the setting on or off (the colors have the opposite of what you'd expect, so it should be checkbox or an on/off slider).
* The on/off radios are also confusing. What do they do? - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17988419, a year agoWould be great but sadly the extension doesn't lock websites I'm currently browsing after the pause time has run out. This lead to me surfing on youtube for hours instead of 5 minute breaks.
Please make it so that the extension checks the current used tab and reload it with a block view when the pause time has run out. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17970905, a year ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Maggi, a year agoEfficient and easy app to be used to block sites. Download the add-on, it'll ask you to enter site names and when you enter it, it automatically blocks the site.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Neko_Alan, a year agoI probably have undiagnosed ADHD, i get distracted very easily by impulsively opening tabs with social media and content agregation. This helps A LOT to diminish this behavior. And i can't thank you enough for developing this extension. ❤️
