Stay Focused

Block distracting websites and get funny images to go back to work.
What is Stay Focused?
Stay Focused is a Chrome extension that helps users block time-wasting sites like social media. It uses three blocking methods - by website, by word, and by regex. Websites can be grouped for collective blocking, e.g., social media, videos. Fun images are used to push users back to work. Also, it allows setting up working hours for website blocking and offers a lock mechanism to avoid immediate tool disabling. The lock mechanism works in three ways - password lock, unlock by answering questions, and repetitive button-clicking.

Proste w użyciu i dobrze działa. W porównaniu do innych wtyczek ta nie ściąga o wszystkich danych o tobie, więc wydaje się to bardziej uczciwe od reszty. Aha, no i wyskakujące memy uroczo-żenujące, to też na plus.

Really amazing extension. Boosted my productivity and made me jiggle with the funny memes it displays once i try to cheat. Would recommend!

Clean and fast UI. Would be perfect if users can set a time limit for each group.
