2024-10-08 | CJ | en | Minus 1 star because this should be integrated into Freedom Premium (I'm a subscriber). It is annoying and inconvenient to keep configuring Focus plugin separately on each computer that I use. If it was integrated into Freedom, changes would automatically get carried over. Please consider implementing this. And if you decide to go ahead, integrate Limit as well. I know Freedom Premium also blocks websites, but Limit plugin allows using the website for a set time before blocking, while Freedom doesn't. Could use that feature for premium subscribers. | |

2024-10-01 | Man Hay S1D33 YIU | en | Some websites I chose to allow are still showing as blocked. I had a negative experience and I hope it can be resolved. | |
2024-09-17 | Álvaro | en | Needs a black list besides a white list, sometimes you want to block few websites not all the internet. | |

2024-04-14 | Areeba Hussain | en | It wont work for me i tried adding and removing sites multiple times but it blocks the allowed sites anyway ive been here for like 30 mins. Why does it sometimes choose to allow the sites that i whitelist and sometimes block????? Also if i disable it and enable it its all messy some are blocked and some are not. I guess I can use my pin every single time on each day I need to use it but its so annoying. | |
2024-04-06 | Arseniy Stepanov | en | It's been really useful. Helps not to get stuck on websites that are not too useful | |
2024-03-27 | Ксения Аулова | en | If site is added in whitelist, subpages on this site are blocked. It doesn't help to work, if I can't read different scientific papers on one site without entering pin every two minutes. | |
