Description from store
one sec forces you to take a deep breath whenever you open social media or other distracting websites. It’s as simple as effective: You will reduce your social media usage just by becoming aware of it. one sec is the focus app that tackles the problem of unconscious social media use at its root. It is designed to change your habits on a long-term basis.
You just wanted to check that one message – and ended up scrolling for 30 minutes on Instagram? Social media companies use psychological traps to keep you hooked and spend as much time on their apps as possible. Time that could be spent so much better – with your family and friends, getting work done or for your hobbies and wellbeing.
Many apps and tools block social media for a limited amount of time to help you focus. This might increase your productivity for the moment, but the real problem – your habitual urge to check apps and websites to get that dopamine boost – stays.
The one sec Chrome Extension is designed from ground up to keep your information private and secure. There are no accounts, no login, no tracking, no profiling. All data is stored offline, on-device, and only you can access it. I make money selling apps and subscriptions, not your data!
one sec is also available for iPhone, iPad, and Android Devices to block native apps and websites. More info on my website.

- (2023-11-23) Thorgrimur Emilsson: Very good. Not as good as App but the principle is the same and that is the main part.
- (2023-11-22) Derek H: Love the IOS app, but this extension is very basic. I found the Delayed Gratification extension better. It would be more useful to add the features available in mobile such as increasing the time delay after every attempt to open an app.
- (2023-11-15) Sheetal Pandey: Give me my productivity back
- (2023-11-08) Florian Séran: Cool but would be better if we could sync with the mobile app

- (2023-10-02) Mohd Saeed (Saeed): valuable extension
- (2023-10-01) Julia Pickett, LCSW: Has helped me avoid mindlessly going to certain websites when I am trying to focus. Has really helped. I wish that it could be expanded to have time-sensitive rules. For example, I want to be able to check my email during certain times of day without the delay. So it would be nice to have it automatically turn off during certain windows of time.
- (2023-10-01) Linda Kong: I'm rating the the extension for my chrome browser 5 stars - it's a simple yet effective concept and I like how it allows me to write my own "warning" message (I can create a harsh message for myself) LOL. However, I am not finding the iPhone app version very good as I have to create a separate shortcut for each app (and it doesn't work for websites on the iPhone).
- (2023-09-30) Deepak Khare: I like the concept, however I don't like the fact that the app asks to "Allow this extension to read and change all your data on websites you visit". Which means it can read my Bank Accounts and other stuff. If I allow it to ready only the websites that I want to block, this extension stops working
- (2023-09-28) Himanshu Singh: I've been using the chrome extension and paid version on iPhone. Must have to stop from impulsive social media usage.

- (2023-09-16) Mark Russomando: I like it. It's simple yet effective. The only problem for me is when I have already entered a website and switch to another one for a sec and then switch back the "one sec animation" happens again. I would like to have the option to switch it off. Thank you.

- (2023-08-15) Jo Ro: Great app! Thank you!
- (2023-08-11) William Earp: This app has illuminated how much I "scratch" the "itch" of taking a so-called "short" detour into transient YT thumbnails on my way to my planned digital destination. I'm definitely keeping it optimized for Chrome and maybe, just maybe, I will get some work done on my "non-urgent but life-changing goals" which often get "squeezed out" by poor time management and distractions/detours.
- (2023-08-11) Tejasvee Dighe: very nice
- (2023-08-09) Sina T.Momeni: A must-have. Should be a default feature on all devices and browsers but never will.
- (2023-08-07) 20H055 THANUSH A A: Man, this is an awesome extension. Does not block any app, but rather makes us more aware and break out of the emotional part of the brain that is controlling us.
- (2023-08-02) Eng. Abdulaziz Al-Shareedah: I need it to stop me from using youtube all day.... the only issue is that the extension consumes a lot of the Mac resources that it starts to overheats
- (2023-07-30) Steven Welsch: A must have browser extension!
- (2023-07-28) Andrea Galvan: Just perfect
