Description from store
Distractions are hidden by a simple, empty button. To show the distraction, you simply click the button.
What you hide is completely up to you. For every distraction Nudge hides, you have two options:
★ Hide the distraction at all?
★ If hiding, show the button to unhide?
Nudge comes with 14 hidden distractions across 7 sites including X, Facebook, TikTok, Bluesky and YouTube, and we’re rapidly adding to the list.
**Request new sites by emailing [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])**
Nudge puts you in the driver's seat so that distractions aren't pushed on you by default. YOU choose when you want to be distracted.

- Hey, I just wanted to say that Google removed your "Unfollow Everything" extension. I was really looking forward to trying it out. Is there any other way to get your extension? It's not here on Nudge anymore.

- Hi Louis, I've just enabled Nudge Chrome extension. However, I primarily use Firefox. Do you/will you have it available? Furthermore, another approach I've thought about is making Facebook look like an old DOS application - more like a BBS - , that can be used with the keyboard. Instead of having tons of images being loaded, you have links. Depending on what YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE, just click on that link of use a user defined hot key combo. Furthermore, this light Facebook app could be installed at your local computer and synced with a Facebook server just to download the info you want from your top contacts. I'm not a programmer (stuck with old Pascal and Qbasic). Or...you may create a new social network - a 2021 BBS. Kudos for it! Thanks!

- Seems like it's broken? In options the toggles don't work. Nothing can be turned on. Under "choose sites", there's just a text field but no button to add anything. Am I doing something wrong?

- An absolutely essential life-saver (literally). Lately, Chrome has been disabling it for me, saying it violates their terms. But allows me to turn it back on. Huh. Does Google want to get rid of it? Surprising.

- Great app, but it's really unstable. Works only 30% of the time. I'm tired of reconfiguring all the options again and again. Also, the buttons in menu stopped working. Developers please, make it work consistently. Update: Just started working again. Don't know the reason why.

- I always wanted app like this. Nudge helps to stay focused. It helps me use the social networks instead of the social networks abusing me and my primitive reptilian brain. Cheers.

- Great extension that makes reflex clicking onto websites harder to do! The only improvement I would like to see is customization options for each website. For example, I would like to make Facebook always have the Defaulter and Rainbow Timer 24/7. But for Reddit I just need the Defaulter during school hours, and then have it off during the evenings.

- UPDATE: Fixed! The maker was really supportive and fixed the issue promptly. Thank you, everything runs perfectly! ---Old comment---: Hi, this is one of the best productivity extensions I have ever used and would really love to give it a better rating. Unfortunately, I've been having a pretty annoying issue with it. Every time I close Chrome my settings are lost. I would be very grateful if this was fixed and am more than happy to update my rating after that.

- Genuinely has cut down my time spent on certain sites, specifically Facebook. It also feels pretty good when I get feedback letting me know that I haven't been on those sites for a long time. Highly recommend this if you want to curb your addiction.

- Nudge is great. It's a simple and straightforward way to take back some control over how you spend time and attention on the internet. No condescension, no hidden pressures.

- This app works very well. It's very quick. It's flexible so you can change your own settings to customise it

- Nudge makes me stop and think about what I'm doing. It's like mindful eating -- not a crazy diet where you can't eat anything, but a subtle shift towards better habits and self-awareness. It might be just a slider on a webpage, but it's like super deep, too... yup.

- Amazing app! I've tried so many applications to curb my anxious procrastination but none as comprehensive and effective as this! From color psychology, to creating friction when wanting to start the addicted habit with small inconveniences, I think this is a wonderful app! My gratitude to the developer, A+!

- The features of the plugin are built upon theoretical principles of behavioural science. A great tool to cutdown the time you spend on social media.

- I give it 5 stars for it does great job across the sites that are the great source of distraction for me. I am really happy with the extension. Big thank you! I do want to say that it stopped working on facebook for me. Luckily, I already unfollowed everyone and those few who I added since I could easily unfollow manually, but it would be nice if it started working again.

- Thanks for this! I’ve unfollowed everyone and can now choose whose news I’m interested in catching up on. Thanks! I did notice that the only friend remaining is someone whose birthday it is today. Is that going to push it’s way through? The birthdays? (I’d kinda be okay with that …)
