Build the habit of focus.

Image from store Intention - Stop Mindless Browsing
Description from store 🎯 Browse with intention When you visit a distracting site, Intention will ask you to commit to a time limit in order to unlock the site. ⏰ Stay focused If you unlock the site, Intention helps you focus by showing how much time you have left. 🙌🏽 Get your attention back When your time runs out, Intention automatically ends your session and helps you reflect on how you'd like to be spending your time. No more unconsciously checking endless feeds the moment you're bored. No more thinking "just 5 minutes" and wasting hours. No more mindless browsing.

  • (2025-04-14) Abdussamet Koçak: I like that it prompts you to be intentional with your distractions. It reduces mindless browsing. I like it.
  • (2025-03-26) Julian B: Best tool, all that for free, don't get that too often these days ❤️

  • (2025-02-04) Kees Brinkmans: Fantastic!
  • (2025-02-02) Andre Huttmann: Thank you very much, it works :) We need the same for edge.
  • (2025-02-02) W1R3D: Cool. It doesn't completely block webs, but make you think about it twice. You can also specify that it is a productive session, for example in youtube sometimes I have to watch a video to help me progress in something, and that youtube time doesn't count as "time spent on distracting sites". Also has streaks if you are less in the sites than the time you want, so it's helpful trying to keep your streak. Nice extension overall.
  • (2025-01-26) Nagendra Krishna: When I saw the rating, which is 5 stars, I thought it might be great. But my expectations were ruined when I saw it. It was just showing that the time was completed but not blocking the website or didn't keep any banner on the website. So, I didn't find it helpful.
  • (2025-01-26) Shawn Robert Doyle: Great extension!
  • (2025-01-16) Leandro Battista: I'm trying to ue this extension o Kiwi Browser (Android) but I can't pass the "Allow Permissions" page. Any suggestion?
  • (2025-01-12) 123okpaul456: It makes me browse the world wide web in a slightly better way.
  • (2025-01-10) Md. Mahin Chowdhury: awesome extension for productivity🎗️
  • (2025-01-07) Marco Witzmann: This has been by far the best method I've found over the years in reducing wasteful screen time while still allowing for human nature of needing short distractions from time to time to relax your brain. I am on a 600+ day streak. I've now seen that with the newest version of Chrome, this extension is not compatible anymore. Can you please make it work with the new Chrome versions? It is such a great tool and would be a shame to lose it!
  • (2025-01-06) Christian Catalan: I've used so many chrome extensions for managing distractions, this one is the simplest and easy to use! I don't think I'll have a need for anything else now, thanks dev for making this. I'd love to see as features: - Optional passphrase prompt for the Unlock action - Customizable opacity for the blurred background (for example make it super blurry, currently can still make out the content in background)
  • (2024-12-18) Davidka Weisberg: Better than apple screen time.
  • (2024-11-29) Ahmed Hatem: Great! simple and straightforward! Thank you for this DK!
  • (2024-11-27) Emily Fox: I'm loving Intention! It's the best system I've found for limiting my FB use. I have to go on for various reasons, but this allows me to be thoughtful about how long I'm staying on and whether I'm using it for good or evil. Evil = aggravating my ADHD.
  • (2024-11-27) Yousuf Ali Choudhry: Absolutely amazing—I can't live without it.
  • (2024-11-27) Shivam Bhosale: Really helped me study and not let me get distracted
  • (2024-11-26) Amr Samir: As someone who uses a lot of attention management extensions (e.g. freedom etc.) I love Intention's approach, and I highly recommend it.
  • (2024-11-25) Fekkod Time: nice!, thanks!
  • (2024-11-10) CJ Gibson: I was a little suspicious of this extension having a perfect rating (with fairly consistently spaced ratings—gives bot energy), especially since extensions like this need a lot of access to function. I'm still going to be cautious of that while I have the extension downloaded, but overall the Intention functions much better than similar extensions. I recognize that "the develop has disclosed that [they] will not collect or use your data," but I don't know what that process involves beyond promising not to. I personally love how it allows for exceptions for certain sites: I can add google.com to keep me from surfing the web but can whitelist mail.google.com, docs.google.com, and accounts.google.com to continue using those without Intention popping up. That's a feature that most extensions that serve to block or limit time on websites would really benefit from.
  • (2024-10-21) Pankaj Sunal: It is a very good extension
  • (2024-10-05) Dan: Gets the job done! Love the fact this is also on Firefox!
  • (2024-10-03) bib drew: make it tricky to go on distracting sites like some sort of brain activity . other all good

  • (2024-08-19) Mario Rad: Amazing, helps keep track and keep in check time "wasted" on unproductive sites and boosted my productivity and awareness of how much time I was actually wasting before. Great tool! Simple and effective, highly recommended!
  • (2024-08-06) Anna Povolná: I love it! It is quite easy to use and it really helps me to time down using FB and other SNS.
  • (2024-08-01) Karthikeya Javangula: We've got App Timers to stop mindless scrolling on smartphones. This is basically the same idea on Chrome. Saves you lots of time.
  • (2024-07-13) DHRUV VARSHNEY: Super useful. Saved me tons of time!
  • (2024-07-08) Dhruv Varshney: Installed this on all my IDs. It contains everything that I wanted in an extension. Deleted 4 extensions and installed this one. Thank you so much!!
  • (2024-07-06) Sabit Bhuiyan: it's great .

  • (2024-06-17) Sai Praveen C: Immensely improved my productivity.
  • (2024-06-14) Fernanda G: I love how customizable and flexible this extention can be, specially because you can make it be activated some days a week and others not, one of the things that you can't find in other extensions like this one. Very nice
