Digital Detox - Block distracting websites

Give yourself a digital detox and block all distracting and time-consuming websites. From the toolbar, you can quickly add websites to block list or temporarily disable the blocking.

Digital Detox is a powerful Chrome extension designed to help you regain control of your browsing habits. With quick blocking and the ability to temporarily disable distractions from the toolbar, it empowers you to focus better. The extension automatically re-enables blocking after 90 minutes to maintain productivity without manual intervention. It supports browser syncing and offers native styling including dark mode for comfortable use.

Privacy is a top priority with Digital Detox — it collects no data, ensuring your browsing remains confidential. Features include visit and block statistics, seamless tab restoration when pausing blocking, and support for multiple languages including English, Spanish, Hebrew, and Dutch. Open source and inspired by established blockers, Digital Detox is an excellent tool for anyone seeking a digital detoxification.

Pretty great extension, which does exactly what it says it does. But it has a bug which closes all your tabs which are on the block list, when you close and then reopen your browser with the same tabs.
