Review summary

StayFocusd is widely praised for its strong ability to block distracting websites and boost productivity, featuring clever tools like Nuclear Mode and engaging reminders. Users find its design intuitive and appreciate that it's free with useful stats. However, some report performance slowdowns in Chrome, occasional unintended site blocking, and glitches in displaying timers or editing blocked sites. Despite these issues, it remains a top choice for overcoming distractions and procrastination.

2025-06-13	Ba*****	en	Worked well for a while for a while but would randomly replace tabs with the screen telling you it's blocked even though the timer hadn't run out yet. At one point all of my restrictions were removed in an update and I didn't realize for like a week. Worked well for showing me how much time I'd spent on each site but recently they're tried to connect it with this app they've made so every chart now defaults to showing you which device you've used more even though I'm only using a single device.

2025-06-11	My*****	en	Been using this for a while and it's working OK. Time limit seems to be buggy - when I set time limit for 45min on Youtube it blocks the site already after 26 minutes (according to time shown in the Dashboard)
2025-06-09	Ch*****	en	Wow, had such a terrible experience. I set it up. Went through the onboarding. Didn't know what I was doing but just seemed to select options that seemed right. I just wanted to block social media and some news sites but I didn't spend the time to add those I guess. Then after about 10 minutes while in the middle of work emails, StayFocusd blocked me from seeing any websites. I could not figure out any way to disable this. There was no way from the blocked screen. I had saved the url for the StayFocusd settings page and it wouldn't let me see that. It wouldn't let me see the Chrome Extension Manager either. Then in another browser, ChatGPT said to do into ingonito mode but again StayFocusd blocked me. WFT. I had to figure out how to open the file in Windows and delete it. Really? It seems like so many people have a good experience with this but I can't imagine. What a headache.

2025-06-06	Er*****	pt	Pra mim esse é o melhor app para esse tipo de coisa, comparado com os outros disponíveis. Que é de fato 100% grátis também é bem legal.
2025-06-04	Ma*****	en	With this extension I just need a bit of will to nuke all unproductive websites.
2025-06-03	AV*****	en	one of the best apps for being productive. It helped me overcome a lot of distraction and today after one day of its use i am extremely satisfied , it definitely deserves 5 stars. Love it
2025-06-02	Sa*****	en	I just started using this app today, but the fact that it can block Youtube shorts alone makes it it a 4/5 app. All the smart little touches after that just push it to 5/5 and beyond!
