- Útil para controlar tu consumo. Pero tienes que ser consciente, la tentación de desbloquear las redes va a estar ahí, el bloqueo solo será un muro y de ti depende decidir no saltarlo.

- I was trying to see if the Extension could be removed while the Strict Mode is active and it can be removed. I love the mobile app and I wanted to give the Desktop extension a try. It works well, but the extension can be easily removed even if Strict Mode is active. It would be great if you guys can add a feature so that the extension could not be removed while Strict Mode is Active.

- Muy intuitivo y util, ya que estoy con un curso online se me hace muy facil abrir youtube, instagram o tiktok y perder mucho tiempo, con esto puedo hacerme un horario donde me bloquea estas paginas e impide me distraiga, muy muy util la verdad

- I have paid for subscription in mobile and all the website blocking features available on phone are not here, and there is no way for us to sign into my premium account either. Also a general list of websites with a option to remove like youtube.com, instagram.com, facebook.com is requested instead of adding each manually.

- very good
- Pooja
- Worst extension ever, I have had encountered better extension than these like "Block these URL Keywords or Domain" Didn't they test it before releasing, It unecessary blocks some of my websites even if no keyword is present. LOL I dont know how does this even work
- Darvin
- For some reason, Appblock seems flaky in Edge. It loads the screen, which often then goes blank, I'm not sure why. It works flawlessly on my Android phone. I wish that there could be a central login across devices, with the setting stored in the cloud, and acting consistently. If I have 4 different time settings in a schedule, the last thing I want to do is replicate that across 3 devices if I change it. But generally, a great idea in today's world of distractions. So I'd give this a 3 on Edge, and 5 on Android, hence review of 4 stars here. It needs work, devs!

- Update 2: 5 stars if it doesn't break again, let's hope it keeps working. Updated: this extension keeps breaking and I lose all my setup. A pity... A richer set of features than some of the competing extensions. The extension seems free, while the corresponding Android app has a subscription (still worth it for me). Downsides: - I don't see the ability to log to an online profile shared across extension and app. - The extension broke once, had to reinstall it, and rebuild my blocking schedules.

- Amazing app, I bought premium on android and installed in browser on pc. Absoultely improved the quality of my life. I wish the creators of this app to become billionaires because the world NEEDS such great projects.

- Funciona muy bien y no tiene las limitaciones premium que tiene la versión para Android, sin embargo, me acabo de percatar de que hay un detalle en el bloqueo de sitios por palabras clave, ya que, por ejemplo, si quiero bloquear "****+locura" (sin comillas), solamente se agrega a la lista de palabras clave "****". Se que con bloquear "****" en automático se bloquea "****+locura", sin embargo, también bloqueará otros sitios que incluyan la palabra "****", por ejemplo "comPUTAdora". Ojala arreglen esto en futuras versiones, ya que en Android si funciona bien. En cuanto se solucioné este problema estaré encantado de darles 5 estrellas. PD: Agradezco al equipo de soporte de AppBlock por responder mi reseña anterior. Ahora entiendo que la prevensión de la desinstalación de la extensión es imposible debido a las políticas de Microsoft. Esperaré con ansias su versión de escritorio.

- The best add-on in the segment. Does everything it promises. I can recommend it to anyone who has a problem with procrastination.
- André
- Full of bugs. Won't allow you to pick the times you actually want for schedules, because it insists in filling the end time with the current time. Also, if you add too much schedules it can suddenly delete all your schedules.
- Simona
- Great extension! If you get easily distracted on websites, this is a great tool to prevent yourself from procrastinating!
