Focus Website Blocker - Block Distracting Sites by laocp.shi

Focus Website Blocker — block distracting websites and stay productive

Can't stop checking social media when you should be working or studying? Focus Website Blocker helps you take back control of your time by blocking distracting websites during the focus hours you choose.

Set your own blocklist and schedule. During active focus sessions, the extension automatically blocks sites like YouTube, Reddit, Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram — or any other domain you add — so you can finally get into deep work. Need a quick breather? A one-click temporary break (5, 10 or 15 minutes — you decide) lets you step away without disabling everything.

Perfect for:
- Students preparing for exams who need to stop procrastinating
- Remote workers and professionals who want distraction-free deep work
- Anyone trying to break the habit of endless scrolling and reclaim their screen time
- Writers, developers, and creators who need long stretches of focus

Key features:
- 🚫 Custom blocklist — block any website you choose
- ⏰ Multiple focus schedules — set different blocking hours for different days
- 📅 Weekday selection — block only on the days you want
- ⏸ Configurable temporary access — 5, 10 or 15 minutes, then straight back to focus
- 🌐 12 languages — English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, Español, Português, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Русский, 日本語, 한국어, العربية (with full right-to-left support)
- 🔒 100% local & private — no account, no tracking, no data leaves your device

Your privacy comes first.
Focus Website Blocker does not read, collect, or upload the content of the websites you visit. Your blocklist, schedules, and preferences are stored locally in your Chrome profile and are never sent anywhere.

How it works:
1. Open the options page and add the websites you want to block.
2. Create a schedule with your focus hours and days.
3. Choose how long a temporary break should last (5, 10 or 15 minutes).
4. Save — the extension blocks those sites automatically during focus time.

Stop fighting distractions with willpower alone. Let Focus Website Blocker keep you on track.
