Description from store
LeechBlock NG (Next Generation) is a simple free productivity tool designed to block those time-wasting sites that can suck the life out of your working day. (You know: the ones that rhyme with 'Blue Cube', 'Space Hook', 'Sticky Media', 'Quitter', and the like.) All you need to do is specify which sites to block and when to block them.
You can specify up to 30 sets of sites to block, with different times and days for each set. You can block sites within fixed time periods (e.g., between 9am and 5pm), after a time limit (e.g., allow up to 10 minutes in every hour), or with a combination of time periods and time limit (e.g., allow up to 10 minutes in every hour between 9am and 5pm).
Additional features include:
• Lockdown: Block sites immediately for a specified duration.
• Access control: Set a password or random access code for the options page, to slow you down in moments of weakness!
• Delaying: Set a countdown to delay access to sites instead of completely blocking them.
• Password: Require a password to allow access to blocked sites.
• Wildcards: Block a range of sites (e.g., *.somesite.com).
• Exceptions: Whitelist sites you don't want to be blocked (e.g., +allowedsite.com).
• Keywords: Block or allow pages based on keywords (e.g., ~badword).

- Sigma Shorts

- good app to block myself from doing bad things, and the fun thing i can make my own absurd website when i open a website i block, ∞/5 stars
- DaVault
- very nice. just that u(devs) need not specify "message from urself" kinda
- Ashish Mukharji
- Simply one of the best tools I’ve found for fighting distraction and procrastination. It goes beyond basic blocking, e.g. if Reddit is both a time sink and a resource for work, LeechBlock handles that nuance too.
- Eli Bogdanov
- It is such an awesome app. Thank you so much!
- Amelia Bai
- very helpful!
- Sanket Kachhadiya
- Thank you for this good exitance. My humble request to developer, please give freedom in 'How to Block' like can show only 'Enter a custom message for the blocking page' only in big front.
- Abhiram M
- Honestly, LeechBlock really helped me. I used to waste so much time on YouTube and other sites instead of focusing on my studies. Now I can block them during my study hours and even put little reminder messages for myself. It keeps me on track and stops me from getting distracted. Simple but super useful, I’m glad I found it

- Daan Geldmeyer
- It works perfectly, a lot better than other competitors where you only can add a certain amount or you need to pay for it.
- Top3 Best (Raccoon King)
- It's a good idea, but the way it works is really confusing, i couldn't figure out how the custom message working, and the way you input the site you want to block is really confusing
- Jon Deaton

- MILTON MONDAL
- very good
- FF GAMER
- I used leechBlock and I loved it . It have very good feature best for studies.
- Vítor Magalhães
- I’ve been using LeechBlock to stay focused and it’s been a game changer. The flexibility to block specific sites at certain times or set daily limits fits perfectly into my routine. It’s quick to configure, easy to adjust, and helps me avoid mindless browsing. Simple, powerful, and highly customizable. obs: the delaying was the best for me, you can decide in x seconds if you should browse the site you're entering, so it is more conscious than being forbidden.
- Tevita Clarke
- The delaying option alone makes this a great tool for productivity. Thanks!
- Cliff Byers
- the thing that takes this apart from all other extensions is that you can click three buttons: remove access to options to this block set, remove access to turning off this extension, and lockdown. its lit impossible to remove the extension then and u have to very meticously do a whole set up for it. def worth it. super customizable. can set specific times for specific days/dates. can choose which websites to not allow/allow. can write msg to self. i think this deserves a 10/5. but, alas, 5/5 it is
- Quintin Janssens
- Amazing extension.
- Asmita
- Great experience! Highly recommended.
- Benjamin Poole
- Very good thank you,
- lara Iza
- Very very useful app. You can delay, or block and overide the block but still get the delay so you have to wait a minute to see the page. You can combine it with fading, etc. It's just really cool a lot of options to discourage you from procrastinating and managing your time. so helpful
