Description from extension meta

Stops you from visiting web-sites on impulsive procrastination.

Image from store DistractOff
Description from store Have you ever noticed how frequently you visit your favorite websites? Ever had those moments when you just open a new tab of your favorite social media site over and over again? Or maybe you knowingly go there to procrastinate? This extension is made so you can keep being focused and stop impulsively procrastinating. Our brains love this stuff. Nice and quick release of happy chemicals. But we understand that this slows down our work. And, besides, nothing new got added there in 5 minutes. DistractOff keeps distractions away and lets you do what's important! Block the websites that you know your brain crave, and keep doing amazing work! But you love those websites and so do I, so it is not permanent. Schedule the days and hours when you're working, or bypass the block temporary when you really need that dose of cat gifs. It's flexible, it's made to give you some time in order to think “do you really need to visit this service right now?,” and make a rational decision, not an impulsive one. My name is Dmytro Kalchenko, I made this, and I am procrastinator. I made this extension for myself, but want to share it with all of you magnificent people who might find it helpful.

  • (2019-01-25) Tales Gonsalves: Works well, minimalist. One suggestion: add the ability to change or add the text on the blocking screen. So people can add their own personal reasons.
  • (2018-12-04) for some reason it straight up won't block websites (like this one). otherwise good
  • (2018-01-22) Davis Powell: great extension helped me stay on task during midterms
  • (2017-09-13) format: Хороший блокировщик. Жаль не блокирует исходящий запрос на посещение сайта, что бы реально не подгружать контент нежелательного сайта. UPD: звук с youtube то не блокирует, мда уж.. Очень плохо
  • (2017-01-10) Ning Cao: good
  • (2016-12-12) Dan Isaksson: I'm loving this. The ability to turn it on for specific sites is just what I need. The ability to simply click and add a site you're visiting works seamlessly and I've had no trouble with it so far. This helps in getting back some control of my online surfing. Facebook is a time killer...
  • (2016-11-22) Богдан Насиковский: Все очень хорошо. Нужно добавить функционал. 1. Возможность управлять страницей блокирования (Чтобы была возможность поместить туда пару мотивирующих фраз) 2. Сделать возможность редиректа с вредного сайта на хороший. Спасибо. ------------------- Everything is very good. Need to add functionality. 1. The ability to manage block page (To be able to put a few motivating phrases) 2. The opportunity to make a redirect to harmful site. Thank you.
  • (2016-10-20) viraptor: Pretty good. The only annoying thing is that the page has to finish loading before the message is displayed. This means slow or complex pages load for a couple of seconds just to disappear (and optionally get reloaded) later.
  • (2016-10-18) Charles Blaxland: I like it, simple but effective. Has really helped me stay focused the last couple of days.
  • (2016-10-17) Doesn't work consistently.
  • (2016-10-17) Michael Alexander: Seems like a solid extension, i used a few and this one is simple and effective.
  • (2016-10-17) Arfin Exe: I'll use this extension later.
  • (2016-10-17) Pavan Kulkarni: Obtrusive, yet non-obtrusive. Thanks!
  • (2016-10-16) Tomas Paul Laulhe: Really helpful! Really lightweight and amazing minimalist UI.
