Description from store
Bloxta is a simple, powerful browser extension designed to help you reclaim your focus and productivity—without sacrificing your freedom or privacy. Built by remote workers for remote workers, Bloxta gives you the discipline to stay on track during work hours, while letting you enjoy your favorite sites when the workday is done.
Working from home is liberating, but it comes with a unique challenge: the same device you use for work is also your gateway to endless distractions. Even with the best intentions, it's easy to slip into the familiar spiral of social media, news, or entertainment sites—sometimes without even realizing it. We faced this problem daily, and existing solutions were either too rigid, too invasive, or just didn't fit the way we worked. So, we built Bloxta.
Bloxta is designed to be as simple and transparent as possible. It uses a special bookmarks folder called "Bloxta" as your blocklist. To block a site, just add it to this folder. To unblock, remove it. You are always in control. You can define your own blocking hours for each day of the week. Want to block distractions only during work hours, or just on weekdays? You decide. There is no snooze, override, or quick bypass. If you want to unblock a site, you have to remove it from the folder, making it a conscious, intentional act. The Bloxta icon in your browser extensions bar or menu changes color to show when blocking is active, so you always know your focus mode status at a glance. Instantly add the current site to your blocklist with a single click from the toolbar popup.
What's New in v1.5:
- Temporary enable/disable blocking with countdown timers and cancel button, for those moments you need a quick break or extra focus.
- Mutually exclusive controls: Only the relevant enable/disable controls are shown, with timers replacing controls when active.
- Improved schedule UI: Add, edit, and manage multiple blocking periods per day, with quick-select for weekdays/weekends.
- Chrome and Firefox feature parity: All features and privacy guarantees are now available on both browsers.
- Enhanced privacy and security: All data stays on your device. No tracking, no analytics, no data ever leaves your computer.
Features:
- Easy blocklist management using your browser's bookmarks.
- Flexible scheduling with multiple blocking periods per day for any combination of days.
- Visual status indicator in the toolbar.
- Quick-add functionality for blocking new sites.
- Free forever: No subscriptions, no upsells, no ads.
- Strict privacy guarantee: All your settings, blocklists, and schedules are stored locally.
How to use Bloxta:
1. Install the extension from the store.
2. Use the toolbar popup or add sites directly to the "Bloxta" bookmarks folder to block them.
3. Open the settings page to define your blocking hours for each day.
4. During active blocking periods, attempts to visit blocked sites will redirect you to a motivational page.
5. To unblock a site, remove it from the "Bloxta" folder. No hidden overrides or backdoors.
Permissions requested: Bookmarks (to read and manage the "Bloxta" folder for your blocklist), Tabs & Web Navigation (to detect and block access to distracting sites), Storage (to save your custom schedule locally), Alarms (to efficiently check the time and update blocking status).
