CHROME + iPhone
With our Chrome extension, you can block distracting apps and sites such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, Twitter and a lot more in one tap and put an end to the doomscrolling. But wait, there’s more! We also have an iOS app that can block the same distractions on your iPhone too and you can sync that with our Chrome extension to prevent you from being distracted anywhere so you can stay focused and improve your productivity!
If you don’t use iOS or don’t want Opal on your phone, you can still use our Chrome extension by itself and that would also work like magic.

- (2023-04-21) Oli Maitland: If you're looking to regain time, live in the moment and just simply lose the phone addiction that everyone seems to have nowadays, Opal is the app for that. It's unreal, couldn't ask for more
- (2023-01-11) Zachary Hodge: Really like the feature set, but it doesn't integrate scheduled sessions with the iOS app and the iOS app sync with other iOS devices. Also, if you have to relaunch Chrome if you want to have another scheduled session trigger it does not work automatically if you haven't closed out Chrome.
- (2023-01-07) M K: really wish the "I'm taking a break because..." window is designed differently so the reason isn't prefilled and I am forced to enter a legitimate reason. Also did they take away the mode where no breaks could be taken...
- (2022-12-27) Alex Large: Useless! I have apps blocked on my phone (like reddit), but can't seem to add a reddit block on the chrome app - I try and add www.reddit.com and nothing happens.
- (2022-05-16) Ramy Zhang: i love that i can set schedules to automatically kick in so i can't just "forget to turn the blocker on". also a big fan of the deep focus mode - i have 0 discipline so having a mode where i can't take breaks or stop it is amazing
- (2022-03-30) Oliver Klingefjord: Breaks don't work :( otherwise nice addition
- (2022-01-24) christine launay: Finally! Now my devices are synced, no more excuses but to be productive, thanks!
- (2021-10-19) I admit it... I used to open Facebook messenger on Chrome when Opal was running on my phone. No more of that with this extension! I can finally have a real full focus session, thank you team :)
