Distraction Free Mode — Google Docs & Slides

This extension is essential for sharing slides live while being able to edit them for teaching purposes.

useful

It does offer full screen docs, which is nice, but I really just want the normal screen, without the MEETING NOTES and EMAIL DRAFT popups, or the DOCUMENT OUTLINE pop ups, or the calendar and maps integration that you cant turn off, which this extension doesn't do.

doesnt work anymore and very buggy ƪ(‾ε‾“)ʃ

Does exactly what it says it does, but the dark mode inverts the colors of images. If that is fixed, I'll reinstall, but until then, I prefer using the pageless option, changing the color to black and manually closing the menu.

If you have white text on the dark background in your google doc, this extension will put white background with your white text. And if you will try to switch it to "dark mode"... It will put both text and background to dark. Wow.

This extension has stopped working. I created an extension that does the same thing and adds a pomodoro timer. Check it out here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/focus-for-google-docs/djnloioaddlnmagobbcnjpppmbelfocf P.S. I want to thank the author of this extension because I loved the extension while it worked and thought it would be worth making sure there is an up-to-date extension.

Very DISTRACTING. All it does is make the menu blink. This is the most useless extension ever made.

I suspect the new Pageless feature on Google Docs (where you can change the background color, too) makes this extension obsolete (added to the fact that it has stopped working), but I wanted to write this review to say thank you to the developers for providing this solution, which was truly ahead of its time. Thank you!

I used to love this extension and use it almost every time I used Docs for writing. But the 2.1.1 update doesn't seem to mesh with Google Docs anymore. The view menu keeps flickering like something is trying to activate it and then no other menu or button works. I had to remove the extension to continue using Docs.

I really liked this extension for a while, but then it stopped working. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but now it just doesn't work. When I click on the icon is the corner, it just does this weird thing where the 'view' button on Docs flashes as if i was clicking on it, yet the menu to open focus mode never comes up. Is there a way I can fix this? I found focus mode really helpful and would like to be able to use it again.

Loved it but it stopped working recently. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not help. Very frustrating--if anyone can recommend a similar extension that works, I'd love to know what it is.

I loved it, but recently it stopped working. Now when I have it installed on either Chrome or Firefox, it doesn't work and I can't click on any of the drop down menus. I think the new updates on Docs broke this.

Works great -- just what I needed.

I dont know how to change the color of the page, that is the most important feature this extension should have and it has proven to be impossible. Whenever I click on the extensions icon on chrome, the "options" selection is disabled I cannot change the color of the page in any way possible, please fix this.

I loved this extension, but it no longer works. See other recent reviews - would love to see it working again.

Loved this extension, but it seems that a recent update made the extension completely useless! Now all it does is turn the border of my Google Docs page into the desired color, while the 11"x8" document itself stays white. When this bug is fixed, I will give this extension 5 stars again, but this bug completely ruins the whole point of it.

It's a wonderful extension, and it helps me focus on schoolwork, writing my book and everything else. I found it very simple to use, and there are different colours of background, all of which are very plain, and I feel like I'm more productive using it. Writing at night is also much easier, finally I won't be blinded! Thank you so much for making this extention!

I love this extension and highly recommend it. I do have a question for the developers—sometimes when I go full screen and click on somewhere in my documents, my cursor usually ends up about 4 lines higher than where I clicked. It's very strange and is an intermittent problem. Any thoughts on what I'm doing? In some ways, it's made my mouse non-functional, which actually makes me LESS prone to distractions and MORE productive, so I'm not really too stressed about it.

The title says it for Docs and Slides. It did not work in Slides for me...it just gave me a screen with a video showing how to use it with Docs and a link to add it (which it was already added.). It would be nice if it removed the filmstrip and hid the controls.

Missing functionality for easily distracted writers.

Thanks for the great extension, really helps me focus on the writing instead of all the google docs chrome. Recently the borders of the page with drop-shadow appeared in fullscreen mode. Any idea how to remove them?

То, что мне нужно. Спасибо! UPD на второй день использования стали видны рамки-тени от листа. Как убрать? :(

Text, just text, nothing else. Distraction free mode is the feature that Google Docs is desperately missing. The must have extension if you have to write a lot of text in Google Docs.
