StayFocusd – Website-Blocker und Fokus-Timer
Description from store

Du setzt dich an den Computer und schwörst, produktiv zu sein. Und bevor du es weißt, sind zwölf Stunden vergangen. Du hast deine E-Mails überprüft, deinen Facebook-Status aktualisiert, 200 Seiten auf Reddit durchgeblättert, jeden Artikel in deinem Twitter-Feed gelesen, deine Lieblingsband auf Wikipedia nachgeschlagen, dich selbst gegoogelt, deinen Ex-Partner cyber-gestalkt, die Instagram-Feeds all deiner Schwarm aus der Schulzeit durchgesehen und eine Woche Gehalt beim Online-Poker verloren.

Was du nicht getan hast, ist ARBEITEN.

✦ Was ist StayFocusd?

StayFocusd ist eine Produktivitätserweiterung für Google Chrome, die dir hilft, dich auf die Arbeit zu konzentrieren, indem sie die Zeit begrenzt, die du auf Zeit verschwendenden Websites verbringen kannst. Sie bietet Analysen, um dir zu helfen, dein Internetnutzungsverhalten zu verstehen und zu kontrollieren, damit du den ganzen Tag über produktiv bleibst.

⭐ Unsere Funktionen ⭐

📊 Website-Nutzungshistorie: Erhalte Statistiken über deine tägliche Website-Nutzungshistorie.
🚫 Konfigurierbares Blockieren: Blockiere ganze Websites, spezifische Subdomains, spezifische Pfade, spezifische Seiten oder sogar Inhalte auf der Seite (Videos, Bilder, Formulare usw.).
☢️ Die Nuklearoption: Diese leistungsstarke Funktion ermöglicht es dir, den Zugriff auf Websites für die von dir festgelegte Anzahl von Stunden an den von dir gewählten Tagen zu blockieren. Sobald sie aktiviert ist, kann sie nicht abgebrochen werden, um sicherzustellen, dass du fokussiert und produktiv bleibst.
📱 Erfordernis einer Herausforderung: Um Einstellungen zu ändern, musst du eine herausfordernde Aufgabe abschließen. Dies reduziert die Versuchung, Einstellungen zu ändern, und hilft dir, deine Produktivitätsziele einzuhalten.
🗓️ Aktive Tage/Stunden: Passe die Tage und Stunden an, während derer StayFocusd deinen Zugriff auf ablenkende Websites einschränken wird. Dies stellt sicher, dass deine Produktivität während wichtiger Arbeitszeiten aufrechterhalten wird.
🔒 Datenschutz: StayFocusd sammelt keine persönlichen Daten von den Webseiten, die du besuchst.

✦ DU BIST WICHTIG

Wir schätzen dein Feedback! Bitte bewerte uns mit 5 Sternen im Chrome Web Store, um uns zu unterstützen. Probleme? Fragen? Vorschläge? Überschwängliches Lob? Schreibe an [email protected]

DATENSCHUTZERKLÄRUNG:
Wenn du StayFocusd installierst, wird es dich um die Gewährung einer Reihe von Berechtigungen bitten, einschließlich "Lesen und Ändern aller deiner Daten auf den von dir besuchten Websites". Diese Berechtigung ist erforderlich, damit StayFocusd auf jeder Website, die du besuchen könntest, ausgeführt werden kann - ohne diese Berechtigung könnte StayFocusd Websites nicht blockieren. Obwohl diese Berechtigung StayFocusd technisch die Möglichkeit gibt, Daten zu lesen und zu ändern, werden wir niemals persönliche Daten aus dem Inhalt der von dir durchsuchten Webseite sammeln.

Diese Erweiterung wird von Sensor Tower gepflegt.

So grateful for this extension and that it's free. One of the best features is the custom message in which you have to type out the message of your choice before you can edit your blocked apps. (I wrote a super long one, so I basically won't be able to access those websites/apps again.) I love the wholesome little pop ups that you get when doing certain actions. There is one when you set your time to 0 for your website groups, there is 2 more on the custom message feature as well that make you have to type everything over again. One occurs when you misspell your custom message and the other occurs when you copy and paste(which is a lifesaver).

Used to be a great extension but the ads for "Luna adblock" ruined it. Are you going to stop displaying ads or not?

The best extension for blocking websites the thing about this is it is very strict , that was the strictness I was looking for and the message typing feature is so amazing this makes it difficult change setting

StayFocusd does its main job well and is useful for productivity. However, I was disappointed to see promotional pop-ups for Luna Adblock/VPN appearing directly on YouTube, even though I never installed Luna VPN or agreed to such ads. The overlay appears briefly and can be confusing, making it look like a system-level app or VPN activity. For a productivity extension, this kind of advertising feels intrusive and unnecessary. The extension would be much better if promotions were clearly optional or completely removed. Transparency matters, especially when users are trying to focus.

App used to be decent albeit slightly buggy (e.g., it occasionally wouldn't start the timer when it was supposed to), but has become pretty much unusable since I updated to Tahoe about a week ago. It now often forgets all of the sites that were supposed to blocked, and also sometimes blocks all of my restricted sites way too prematurely and broadly (e.g., have a few sites that each have their own 30min restriction, but all become blocked after spending ~5 minutes on a single one of the sites). Bummer!

exactly what I was searching for

It used to work better. For example, when I’m on a website that is in the block list and the time runs out, that site is correctly blocked. However, when I switch to another tab, websites that are not in the block list often get blocked as well. Even when I switch tabs again, those pages may also be blocked. If I use the browser’s “Back” button, the page briefly loads, but then the block screen appears again instead of the actual site.

I honestly loved this extension until they started to AGGRESIVELY push ads; It was so aggressive that I originally thought I caught a malware, then I noticed the stayfocusd logo. I was on a site called newrecruit, and it was literally covering half the content; something called Luna Ad Blocker, "By Stay Focusd". I love this app; but i think i am gonna delete it.

Just uninstalled because of your ad 😁

It's not working. Very frustrating. All I wanted it to do was block me from using a particular website during certain hours of the day. So I added that website to the blocked sites list, selected all days of the week, and selected the hours that I wanted to be blocked. First source of frustration was having to wait 24 hours for the hours to take effect so I couldn't benefit from this plugin on the first day. So I waited a full day and it's still not doing anything. Instead it's doing an hour long time limit on the site even though I never wanted an hour long time limit. I just want it to block me during the times I requested. Very simple need that it's not helping with. If I'm doing something wrong, it's not intuitive at all. I was able to figure this out with LeechBlock in about five minutes.

Works great! Ultimately, depends on how motivated you are to avoid the sites haha. But it is very effective at limiting!

Could have easily been a 5 stars but there is an issue where if i select the block all except the whitelist apps, it just block the dashboard itself essentially stopping us from setting the whitelist.

I blocked the stayfocused so that I don't open it to delete websites. Now I get this. Action Required Our Terms of Service have changed. Open the settings page to accept them. I cannot open the extension to accept them. I am not able to add new sites to block list.

Long time user of this extension, I recently discoverd that since it was aquired it is scanning your traffic for god knows what. The embedded asset `youtube_hulu_vue.js` scans your traffic on site and reports back to mothership. An AI analysis of this codeblurb: This JavaScript file is a minified/bundled ad tracking and capture script designed to detect, extract, and report advertisements from streaming and social media platforms. Here's what it does: Purpose: This appears to be an ad intelligence/measurement tool - likely used for competitive analysis, brand safety monitoring, or ad verification. It's designed to run as a browser extension or injected script. Core Functionality Ad Detection Across Multiple Platforms: YouTube - Captures video ad data, ad IDs, and click-through URLs Hulu - Intercepts VAST/DASH manifest files to extract ad metadata Netflix - Monitors for pause-screen ads and video ad insertions TikTok - Captures sponsored content from the feed Twitter/X - Detects promoted tweets and extracts advertiser info VAST Ads - Parses VAST XML format used by many video ad systems Data Collection: Extracts ad dimensions, duration, source URLs, click-through links Computes MD5 hashes of ad content for deduplication Captures screenshots/canvas data from display ads Tracks advertiser IDs, brand names, and creative IDs Network Interception: Monkey-patches XMLHttpRequest.send() and fetch() to intercept API responses Monitors for playlist, manifest, and GraphQL responses containing ad data Cross-Frame Communication: Uses postMessage to communicate between iframes and parent windows Handles ads embedded in nested iframes Reporting: Bundles collected ad data into X (crawl data) objects Sends data via a sendData callback to an external collector Includes install IDs and crawl timestamps Key Classes b - Ad data model (dimensions, hash, URLs, platform-specific data) y - Source URL tracker (images, videos, iframes) X - Crawl session data container

Beyond W extension

Love this extension. It has quite literally changed my life. However, it has started to interfere with other sites that shouldn't be blocked. I think this happens when I move to another tab while the "Shouldn't you be working?" page loads. Recently (i.e. in the past few weeks), the loading of this page has been *incredibly* slow, particularly with loading the usage graph (e.g. 20-30 seconds minimum). I find that until the graph loads, I can't use any other tab or otherwise they will also get accidentally blocked. Once the graph loads, I can hit back on whatever tab was previously blocked and it's no longer an issue.

The plugin has a bug. When the timeout reaches it displays a message on the same page, but than if you switch to another page, a lot of times you would see that message on the other page. Not only that, it will be impossible to go back to the original page. A lot of times, this will happen again and again and again on different pages not even related to the original website which supposed to be blocked.

The extension is forcing you to grant it permissions to collect some data, even if you don't want to.

Amazing extension for boosting productivity and limiting your daily usage. this became part of my life and I can't surf the web without it so W for the developers. Only problwm is that with the new version of stayfree is kinda better and more polished so idk. I am using both rn

love the self-doubt it creates when you are cheating by trying to switch off the website!

The December 21st 2025 update has a glitch that causes me to not add any websites to the blocklist. The "add list" option doesn't work. I deleted and reinstalled the extension and the same problem came up. I then turned off a bunch of extensions and nothing changed. Chrome's updated to the newest version as I write this, so I dunno what to do. I may have to use another extension, which sucks as I've been consistently using this since late 2020.
