Extension summary

Set website whitelist for your browser and automatically block all other sites.

Whitelist manager blocks all websites besides a list of allowed safety domains. This app is gonna be helpful for parents if you want to limit your children's surfing thought the web and sketchy content. As well as you want to stay focused on something important like work or exam preparing you can just create a site whitelist and deny an access to all entertain websites.

Create your own whitelist of safe websites that automatically blocks all other sites.

Consider a few tips:

  • Use wildcards. For example, if you add 'google.*' to whitelist, you WILL be able to access 'google.com', 'google.de', 'google.es', etc.

  • If you specify only domain of the website, its subdomains will also be allowed. By adding 'google.com', you WILL be able to access 'mail.google.com', 'maps.google.com', etc.

  • If you specify both the domain and the subdomain of the website, it means only subdomain will be allowed. So if you add 'www.google.com', you WILL NOT be able to access 'mail.google.com', 'maps.google.com', etc.

Twitter is not blocked even though it's not on my whitelist and I have the "Block pages from websites not in my list" checkbox enabled. Otherwise, great plugin

Most underrated chrome extension in the world. Great to help me focus. Also, would be good for parental control for little kids (nursery age), though much older and kids can break it, still useful though. Def it needs a webpage when selected to show which websites are allowed (would act like a reminder). This would be different than the options page where sites can be added. Also a password, even if the extension could be disallowed. Also would be great if you could click an "add" menu item in the extension-icon's righ-click menu that would add the currently viewed site to the whitelist. I'd easily donate $10 if it had those options, which I've done with other extensions like the "Full Screen for Google Tasks" extension, and others.
