Clearspace: Your Chrome Extension for Mindful Browsing
Navigating the digital world requires a balance between being connected and staying focused. With an abundance of distractions like social media and enticing websites, managing screen time effectively is crucial for mental well-being, productivity, and fostering healthy relationships. Clearspace for Chrome is designed to combat digital addiction and transform your browsing experience into one that's purposeful and less distracting.
Why Clearspace for Chrome?
Clearspace revolutionizes your browsing by eliminating distractions while keeping essential content accessible. Say goodbye to impulsive clicks and endless social media scrolling.
Key Features:
- Block and Limit Websites: Easily block websites that you find distracting and set limits on your browsing time.
- Social Media Doomscrolling Management: Implement session management to prevent excessive scrolling.
- Habit Change: Use the pause-before-opening feature to reduce the influence of dopamine, leading to more mindful online habits.
- Minimalist Design: Clearspace’s interface is straightforward, ensuring that your attention remains where it should.
- Social Feed Blocking: Automatically block distracting feeds on social media sites, removing the temptation to endlessly scroll.
- Reader Mode: Activate Reader Mode to strip away all distracting elements from a webpage, leaving only the text. This feature is perfect for those who want to concentrate on the content without the clutter of ads, pop-ups, or other distracting elements.
- Combat Digital Addiction: Notice a significant reduction in impulsive website visits and an enhanced ability to engage in deep work and flow state activities.
How It Works:

2. When attempting to visit, make a mindful decision – proceed or opt out?

- (2023-07-18) Satpreet Kahlon: doesn't seem to work on my facebook, but more importantly: can't add instagram! love love the phone app, but the extension leaves a lot to be desired :/
- (2023-07-17) Zoe Fahy: Based on reading the other reviews, I'm not alone in two things: 1. wondering why the chrome extension is a separate subscription from the app, and 2. wondering why you can't add sites like Tiktok and Instagram to the list. The app is very helpful, but I was disappointed that the chrome extension has much, much less functionality and is really a separate product / experience, not a way to sync the app across devices.
- (2023-06-17) Jash Mota: made me realize how often i used to scroll on social media. wish could add more sites and that there was android app
- (2023-06-10) Luis Chaves Rodriguez: Why does it not block Instagram? And also I have the subscription on the iOS app, is it not valid for the chrome extension? It'd be a bummer to have to pay twice
- (2023-06-05) siber klaud: helpful in being productive
- (2023-06-02) Adithya Ravichandran: Proper decent!
- (2023-05-31) Blake Bathman: amazing
- (2023-05-30) anthonyto80: I love Clearspace - it saved me a lot of time & made me more focused on my work.
- (2023-05-14) ibrahim sowunmi: I've bought a subscription on the app on my iphone? How do I log in on the desktop version??
- (2023-04-24) Victoria Martín del Campo: Good, but didn't had button to lock and unlock everything at once
- (2023-04-10) Frank Jin: working except Facebook.
- (2023-04-08) Roufail Boughos: j'ai adoré cette extension. Elle m'a à ne pas procrastiner et donc à rester plus concentrer dans mon travail
- (2023-04-06) Carl Vincent Escobar: Works really well! Sometimes I don't want to completely block YouTube, but when I don't and I get there, I can get quite distracted by all the recommendations. Clearspace's background captures my attention and addresses my need for some stimulation without pulling me into it, which works quite well in preventing me from going down a rabbit hole. My only complaint would be that it doesn't seem to work with Facebook.
- (2023-04-01) Kamna Singh: Still testing the app. It is working out well for me. I can focus on my work and studies without getting distracted.
- (2023-03-13) Willem Nielsen: Still testing out the usefulness of this. But it has helped me go on youtube and just watch the videos that I intended to watch
- (2023-02-28) Benjamin Litvin: Great product! Allows me to use the sites I need for the reason I went to them, without allowing me to get hooked in and distracted
- (2023-02-20) Abhinav Jha: This ext is awesome, I would just love for it to show me stats on the number of times I've been prevented from distractions on a weekly / biweekly basis!
- (2023-01-19) Diana Mongare: Such a great way to get your focus and mojo back!
- (2023-01-06) Matthew Curtis: Best way for me to stay focused on tasks at hand. Twitter & Linkedin get me into a nasty cycle of unproductivity...Clearspace gets me out.
- (2022-09-18) sahil maheshwari: I like this application a lot. It has improved my productivity a bit as well. Nice extension to have.
- (2022-09-14) Scott Nelson: Great app - love the way it blocks sites, including the aesthetic background & quote. Only issue is it doesnt seem to work for facebook. Each other site it works fine, but ive tried toggling a few times for FB, but no luck.
- (2022-09-12) John Wetzel: This extension covers up the internet's rabbit holes. I love that it lets me still use the sites that I need but hides the parts that are designed to distract me and make me "fall down the rabbit hole."
- (2022-09-08) Chai Latte: Super great tool. Has helped me get past lots of distractions on the internet
- (2022-08-31) Nia Austin: Love the app and the chrome extension is great!! Like a breath of fresh air!
- (2022-08-24) Cooper Munhall: Both the app and now the chrome extension have been incredible additions to my efficiency in working with less distractions as well as building intentionality and thoughtfulness into my decisions to utilize certain distracting sites/apps (e.g., social media). It is amazing how much of a difference having required time built in to a decision can change our habits.
- (2022-08-12) Michael Krumdick: I've been looking for something like this for a while, fantastic addition to my digital well-being
- (2022-08-12) Coco: Amazing app! Not only am I way more productive, but my brain and eyes feel less "noisy" and accosted. You have to see it to understand, but the difference in going to the YouTube page with the extension on vs. off is incredible! It makes me realize how much JUNK my brain is being bombarded with and how unhealthy and totally distracting that is. The greatest part is I can still fully access YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc. but for what I want and need and without the "rabbit hole" effect that kills my day, my productivity, and (not to sound dramatic but it's true) my happiness!
- (2022-08-11) Kevin Schneier: The browser extension is a great way to get the benefits of Clearspace even on your laptop. Even when I seem to have my phone usage under control, I often find myself subconsciously opening new tabs at work and typing "twitter.com" before I am even aware of what keys I'm typing. This Clearspace extension gives me the support of a proven productivity (and, more importantly, wellness) platform, now on my work devices as well. 100% would recommend.
- (2022-08-11) -: wow..this really works... I used to feel so trapped and used. This really helps that.
- (2022-08-10) Peter Pappageorge: At first, you feel like a recovering drug addict. You come to realize how often you subconsciously just go to junk social media websites or apps. Ever since I started using clear space, I find myself spending more time on websites, apps or programs that are actually beneficial. But the best part, I fall asleep 10x earlier than before!
- (2022-08-08) Zach Farley (Legostarwasrzach): I have the iOS app and have been using it for 8 months and had to download the Chrome Extension when I heard about it! I went from wasting my day on Tiktok to actually using my time to be productive. Would highly recommend the extension or the app to anyone trying to get more work done during the day!!
- (2022-08-05) Michael l: It really works!! I feel like I've gotten back so much time I used to waste before using this. I would get distracted and spend hours on youtube just wasting time, but now ClearSpace pulls me back on track and I've never felt more focused before.
- (2022-08-05) Hannah Branning: Game changer for my work from home productivity. This extension allows me to work efficiently without getting distracted - super simple and very effective. Love it.
- (2022-08-03) Charlotte GB: Extremely effective. Frustrated at the time you waste online? This is the answer.
