    Brak możliwości zalogowania do swojego konta z poziomu rozszerzenia. Unable to log into my account from Chrome Extension.

    Pretty basic but works adequately. I would like to see the ability to add to blocklist while the blacklist is enabled. It's pretty easy to find "another" distracting website. Whitelist mode does not work with custom websites, making this inadequate for web development.

    Please flesh this out more. It would be incredibly cool to have a more finished app for computer that better syncs with the mobile app (starting timers for both). You can't even put tags for the category you're focusing on with this extension. It has the potential to be just as nice as the app, and I really hope it gets there.
