| 2025-01-09 |  | | en | Love the app. It really helps to stay focused. Is there a mode that it keeps on blocking after 25min. My focus sessions are sometimes longer than 25 min and I like to block for 3 hours for instance. Thanks, for all you do! |
| 2025-01-04 |  | | en | It doesn't track my times of focus time and total focus correctly. It missed most of my focus events. |
| 2025-01-02 |  | | en | Causes a bunch of layout problems on youtube (buttons expanding, scrollbars showing up on video descriptions), took me forever to isolate it to this app as I have no idea why it'd cause so many problems. |

| 2024-12-10 |  | | en | I LOVE this app. Otto is so cute and I can't let him get hurt. I have ADHD and gamification works amazingly when I am trying to focus. There is one suggestion I would like to implement. I would like for there to be a mode where there is a white list or an allowed list so when I turn on this mode it only allows those websites and all other websites are blocked. I get distracted very easily and I start reading an online version of my LED lights instruction manual 😅. I just can't block all the websites that I get distracted with because I get carried away easily. But other than that, it's an amazing extension. Thank you so much for making a free extension for people that have an incredibly hard time studying! |
