Limit - Set Limits for Distracting Sites
Extension Actions
Limit your time spent on distracting sites. Limit is an extension that allows you to set time limits for distracting websites.
When you control your time on distracting websites, you’ll find you have far more time to focus on the things that matter most.
To use Limit, simply enter the websites you find distracting and choose a daily time limit. For example, you could limit yourself to ten minutes a day on Facebook, or half an hour a day on Duolingo.
When you approach your limit, Limit gently notifies you your time is almost up, so you can wrap up. And when you've reached your limit, you'll be directed to Freedom's calming Green Screen when you try to visit a limited website.
- You can add or delete any website from the list of sites
- Your time limit for each site is configurable, from 5 to 500 minutes
- Limit comes pre-seeded with 10 distracting sites

- This app is working great for me. I only have limits on a couple websites, and have not tried it with youtube - but so far (2 weeks in) has worked perfectly.
- saanvi
- This has definitely helped me focus and stop using distracting websites while studying. so underrated! Only thing I would suggest is it would be really cool if the "you have reached the limit" screen could be customizable somehow.

- Haven't used it that long but tried youtube.com like another user reviewed and had no problem after 5 minutes the page was switched off and opening a new window didn't allow me to visit YouTube. Works as described. Very useful plugin for kids that spend a lot of time on the same websites for way too long.

- Tried it out and it didn't work. I set youtube.com to timeout at 5 minutes and after 12 minutes youtube is still running. The little timer that runs in the corner indicated the website, youtube.com was running for under 2 minutes. I love the idea of the extension, it just doesn't work.
