- Andrew Burrow
- Fantastic extension to help keep from losing time to websites. The features are well thought out and implemented. The blocking of websites by subdomain is powerful, but a little difficult to understand. It would be helped by a test button under the config that would allow you to paste in a URL and check its blocked status. The two types of restriction -- Schedules and Time Limit Rules -- take a little getting used to if you want to use both. For example, if you want to never watch YouTube in work hours, and then only watch an hour a day in the remainder of the time. This could be addressed by some use cases examples in the documentation, a sort of strategies document. The analytics section is a crowning jewel, but it is undermined by a common problem: the y-axis auto-scales, which greatly undermines the value of the graphs as you try and compare your progress, week by week. It could be improved by adding an option to set a default scale and goal line. That way you could get used to the size of the bars relative to your goal

- Иван Кузьмин
- Is amazing, apart from one VERY big issue sadly - it doesn't work in Incognito mode( When I tried enabling it to work in incognito inside chrome://extensions, that option is simply not there, only "Pin to toolbar", "Collect errors", but no "Allow in Incognito as I've seen in some others unfortunately. Will love it if it's fixed!
- Jing Ren
- It's very useful for me. I set a whitelist for my daytime and downtime for bedtime. The statistics are informative too. It'll be even better if there is a feature for limiting time for each session. But I'm already satisfied.

- Hamdaan Mansoor
- SUPER , ive tried a dozen of extentions and this is the GOAT of them all , easily the best
- Bagua
- I've tried a handful of screentime extensions and this is easily the best. It's easy to use, the UI is neat, and the badge showing your time on your current website when you pin the extension is super helpful. Only improvement point is the fact that it clumps all google websites into one, instead of separating them into docs, gmail, search, etc. I'd rather see more specified screentime data for each site without having to go to the extension and manually expand the menu.

- jacob boom
- amazing extension. exiting out is easy, like when you have a schedule or a time limit rule if its turned on its easy to turn it off again ( which is not good wish if it was a more harsher way to do it like it requires you to right "i give up" or "i am a loser" or maybe a custom phrase that you write in order for it to turn off ) also the the tab that open and tells you to "take a deep breath" I wish that you can add custom phrases or a reminder of your to do list or take you to a custom URL or page of choice. keep up.

- Karman Chhatwal
- Amazing. Fulfilled all my needs. One suggestion -Give a notification if I've been on the same website for a long time(30mins+, possibly configurable?). Don't block it, just open a new tab that says, "You sure you want to be doing this?" or give some sort of notification.
- Elizabet Perez
- Really great screen time tracker and website blocker.
- DavelCyber
- great one.
- honey saini
- suggestions for the developer - as a student i use youtube for shorts and studying too so if you can add screen time scroller type by or a timer clock that we can use as brake - i would also like u guys to add a feature called gradually screen time reducer for example i have a youtube screentime of 8 hours but i want to reduce it to 3 hours now i can't like directly do it it takes a lot of will/ discipline and if you fail you get into this trap of you can do it or no etc so if i set thois feature it will reduce like lets say 2 minutes from my screen time daily by which in a month 30*2=60minutes so in a month i am already down 1 hour and i didnt even have to fight myself with these arguments in my head Hope if you are reading it you will add these features

- lets say i set a time limit of 2 hours for a group. is that 2 hours for each thing in the group, or 2 hours for everything in it combined? edit: another question, is there an option to change it from 00-N to the 12 hour clock time? like 2pm instead of 14oclock thank you so much
