2024-02-21 | James Adams | en | Stops you from opening a website like you tell it too, but sometimes it take a while after "distraction free mode" expires for it to give you access again. | |
2024-02-18 | SAMARPAN sharma | en | best | |
2024-01-19 | Lieutenant Simon Ghost Riley | en | please fix some bugs. add scroll bar plz | |
2023-12-13 | B. Deniz Turan | en | Worked perfectly for a long time, but for the last month or so it's mostly half-working or just not working at all. | |
2023-09-26 | Daniel Lemon | Broken and out of date. The UI doesn't even fit in the little pop up window. | ||
2023-09-25 | Ashraful Rahman Sakil | It would be good if there was a crawling option, there are many problems if there is not. if it is static, if you input more sites, you will not be able to go down in any way. So the extension is Jose | ||
2023-09-19 | Emily | Seems like it hasn't been updated in a while, so there's some bugs. I can't change the hours slot, and the list of sites you've blocked doesn't let you scroll down to turn on self control, so you have to delete them, turn on self control, then manually add the sites back. It's a life saver for studying, so I put up with these buggy aspects but if I found a similar extension that works better I would go to that. | ||
2023-07-28 | Sara Wendelken | I love it. Just the tool i needed! | ||
2023-06-02 | no name | very good, but please allow to add more time in "Distraction free mode". like 7 days or month... at least more than one days... | ||
2023-04-09 | Ethan-Scott Hin | The "wildcard" blocking is absolutely fantastic - stopping me from even searching for distracting websites! |
