• (2020-08-02) DANOLD: honestly, its terrific, does exactly what it says, lets you block list some websites from yourself. Would be nice to have a black(night) theme. But seriously fantastic Back after the new update, very clean
• (2020-08-01) Tim Raedsch: This extension is worth gold.
• (2020-07-18) 陳威丞: so great to use it ! thank you very much
• (2020-04-07) Krzysztof Bernat: Works really well.
• (2020-03-18) Masha Ivanova: Все пишут по-английски, а я оставлю на русском) Это расширение гениально и пока, кажется, не имеет аналогов. Плюсы: 1 - Конечно же, лаконичный дизайн! Оно напоминает мне специальные текстовые редакторы, которые оставляют тебя наедине с чистым экраном, чтобы ни одна лишняя кнопка не отвлекала тебя от работы. 2. Идея, заложенная в расширение: составь список дел на сегодня и, пока не выполнишь дела, расширение будет блокировать те сайты, которые тебя отвлекают (например, соцсети). 3. При этом нет никаких запретов и злобных ухищрений, чтобы усложнить жизнь пользователя и оградить его ото Зла. Все мы прекрасно понимаем, что это так не работает, ведь любое расширение можно удалить за пару секунд. 4. Ограждение от вредных сайтов основано на доказанных психологических приемах: вы можете зарыться в любые глубины интернета, но для этого придется совершить пару лишних движений мышкой, и на этом пути вам будут предлагать сначала самые мягкие варианты "согрешений" - от 5 минут. Если вы попытаетесь зайти в любимую соцсеть, на экране появится фотография глаз, пристально смотрящих на вас. Неоднократно видела информацию об исследовании, которое установило, что такая простая фотография, размещенная над раковиной, увеличила сознательность медицинских работников и заставила чаще мыть руки (что критически важно для врача/медсестры). Минусов пока не наблюдаю. Как человек, опробовавший десятки непродуманных и, соответственно, не помогающих расширений, я очень рада, что появляются новые и очень даже толковые варианты.
• (2020-03-11) Daniel: Works really well, nice simple and elegant design.
• (2020-03-08) 9pple: It those eyes. They really shame you into getting on with your work! Haha. This is a great productivity tool. I'm going to love using this in the future.
• (2020-01-25) Jessie Rose: Very simple and easy to use to do list! Love it!
• (2020-01-19) Vikasini Mahalingam: simply ideal. It helps you keep tabs on what your goals are, blocks sites temporarily, and has a sleek, peaceful design. Thanks John!
• (2020-01-12) Dimeji Coker: Best task manager ever!!!
• (2019-12-23) Gustavo Zapico: One of the best productivity apps online: simple, clean and effective. Lean user interface with special focus on GTD without distractions. It's FREE but with real value.
• (2019-12-11) Harshdeep Kaur: Loved it
• (2019-11-20) Stella Ji: !!! its quite inconvenient that there is a big blank of space above the task list. I understand it is for the pair of eyes to stare into your soul but it would be much better if the space is usually gone, only to appear when blocked sites are detected. The big waste of space is annoying as my task list is long and i can only scroll down by clicking the page down button on my keyboard.
• (2019-10-12) Naveedh Samad: Great for those who are easily distracted
• (2019-10-10) Gabrielle Blust: I feel like this extension has helped me more than any other productivity extension. Instead of simply blocking the sites that distract me so that I just pull out my phone instead, it holds me accountable for what I set out to do. I set a goal, I achieve the goal, then get to treat myself with Facebook. It's perfect positive reinforcement.
• (2019-08-16) Ahmad Imran: Great minimalist todo list extension for Chrome - can't praise it enough. Give it a try but keep in mind that it is for simple, quick and focused list making. This is not an alternative to Todoist perhaps, this is at different level. I use it in combination with Todoist - anything within 3 days goes on PROD and anything longer than 3 days goes on Todoist. This way the clutter and short term actions remain on Prod and get cleared straight away. I intend to write to the author and propose a few subtle tweaks and additions if at all possible. I hope he/she will respond and incorporate if possible. Well recommended extension. Keep it up and keep supporting/developing it. It is a great asset to Chrome extensions repository. Well done.
• (2019-08-15) Dat Nguyen: Use this to improve your productivity.
• (2019-08-03) X FefenVeentha: Works very well
• (2019-06-24) Hoa Miss: great : simple, effective
• (2019-06-06) Dagny Deutchman: Holy balls, so simple. So great. Cannot recommend enough.
• (2019-04-04) Julie Lum: stunning. beautifully simple with a great concept, expertly executed. best blocking and productivity method i've seen in a deliciously beautiful package. classy and clean.
• (2019-03-14) Thomas Bunting: Helps me stay on track throughout the day, Would like to see dark theme support with the new chrome version 73.
• (2019-03-05) This is the best extension I've ever used. Thank you for creating this. I wish there was an option for checking all the todo list items I've crossed out, and integrations with other services like Todoist. It would be very awesome if you can open source this and let people customize it to their will.
• (2019-01-19) Elizabeth Agresta: A friend recommended Prod to me, and it's really helped curb my impulse to "reward" myself with time on social media or YouTube when I'm working against a tight deadline.
• (2019-01-11) Thomas Hutterer: Very nice extension but still missing a pause option outside the options tab. For ex. I have blocked youtube but sometimes I need to see an informative vid. for just 2 minutes for my work and I hate to go to options everytime.

  can you guys add an option for the user to keep their new tab
• (2019-11-13, v:2.1.7) Gabrielle Blust: Blocked Sites Still Accessible
  I have two blocked sites, Facebook and Twitter. The extension effectively blocks Facebook, but I am still able to access Twitter.
• (2019-11-06, v:2.1.7) justin pryor: Dark
  Love your app, but you gotta do a dark theme. It's a necessary requirement these day's guy's. Don't mean to be breaking your ball's. Thank's for the killer app. you guy's kick ASS.
• (2019-10-05, v:2.1.7) Harsh Singh: Website blocking does not work correctly
  Say you block mail.google.com, you can still access https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#inbox What gives?
• (2019-08-03, v:2.1.7) X FefenVeentha: font for categories
  Prod is great. But how do you type in the large font to make category headings. For example, in the overview you show the word "Branding" in a large type face but I don't see how to do this.
• (2019-07-09, v:2.1.7) Jordan Clarke: Twitter not being blocked
  Hi there, love the product! One issue: I've added Twitter to my blocked sites, but it's not being blocked. I think it started when they updated the design of their UI, not sure though. Thanks!
• (2019-04-26, v:2.1.7) Rachel Park: I like it so far
  Any option to change the background colors? (limit it to 4-6) After we cross out the list, I wish I could go back to it for a certain time.. maybe history of past items or something.
• (2019-04-04, v:2.1.7) Julie Lum: Disabling Tab Page
  love this extension! I do find myself disabling and enabling Prod regularly because I'm a tab for a cause user enjoy having my own tab page. Controlling for the tab setting would be a wonderful addition for users with similar habits
• (2019-03-14, v:2.1.7) Thomas Bunting: Dark theme
  with chrome now supporting dark theme, would be good to have this plugin do the same.
• (2019-02-19, v:2.1.7) Jp Davidson: time limits
  would it be possible to block a certain URL after a certain amount of time has elapsed?
• (2018-12-15, v:2.1.7) Remove the requirement to "view and change all data on websites I visit"
  Suggestions: Remove the requirement to "view and change all data on websites I visit". This will scare off a lot of people as nobody knows if you are collecting any of the data on the websites. Other productivity extensions do not have an equally good approach as yours but some instead just need the right to "view my browsing history", which I am much more comfortable with. Since it appears to be possible it seems like a wasted opportunity to not rather use that way. Almost all major productivity apps have the same flaw, yours could be better.
