Extension summary

Time is wasted scrolling through websites. You can set time limits on mobile apps, but this experience hasn't been effectively brought over to web.

TimeLimit allows you to add time limits to websites, and throughout the day, it tracks the number of times you've visited the website. If you pass the time limit on a site, you get to choose whether to extend by 15 minutes, ignore the limit for the day, or close the tab.

Taking an explicit action should help you make better decisions on how to spend your time.

Q: How do I add new websites to TimeLimit? How do I know how long I've spent on those sites? A: Click the TimeLimit chrome extension icon to pop up a view that allows you to add/edit/remove websites to track, as well as modify how long your time limit is for that site. You can also use that extension popup to track your time spent on websites and visit history.

Great. It's a daily time limit for the websites you choose. What makes me choose it over other options is the flexibility. It allows you to increase the time after it runs out, and you can also reset it. The other ones I tried were much more rigid and annoying. I personally just wanted a time tracker of a customized list of sites with reminders when I reach certain amounts. For it to be perfect I'm missing two features: 1. It would be nice if you could add a customized amount of minutes when the time runs out and not only 1 or 15 minutes. 2. It would be nice if you could pause the time tracking of a site, like with a pause button or something. This is because I sometimes use sites with different purposes. For example, I sometimes use YouTube for education and I don't wan't to track that time as if it was procrastination.

Nice plugin. It would help to have an option for disactivating extension intervals completely

Very good plugin! Simple end useful. It would be great if user could choose 2-3 different options for extending interval. (1, 5, 15 min)
