About this extension
Stay Focused. Get More Done. Block Distractions Instantly.

Tired of getting sidetracked by Reddit rabbit holes, YouTube binges, or endless Zillow surfing? Distraction Block is a simple, privacy-first browser extension that helps you reclaim your attention — no accounts, no tracking, no bloat.

Instant Website Blocking

Block any distracting website with one click. Add sites like Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, or any domain. Works across all tabs and windows. Just type a domain, click Add, and it's blocked. Remove sites anytime with a single click.

Master Blocking Toggle

One switch controls it all. Turn blocking on or off instantly. The toggle is always front and center — no digging through menus. A glowing indicator light shows your blocking status at a glance.

Scheduled Blocking

Automate your focus time with smart scheduling. Set specific hours when blocking should automatically activate. Choose weekdays, weekends, or both. Define start and end times for your focus periods. Blocking turns off automatically when your scheduled window ends, or you can override it anytime with the master toggle. Perfect for maintaining consistent work routines without having to remember to enable blocking every morning.

Auto-Disable Setting

Choose whether blocking turns off automatically when a scheduled window ends, or stays on until you manually disable it. Find this in Settings — it's on by default.

Clean, Focused Design

Dark theme interface that's easy on the eyes. Indicator lights show blocking and schedule status at a glance. Collapsible schedule section keeps the interface minimal when you don't need it. Inline validation tells you if a domain isn't valid — no jarring popup alerts. Designed to stay out of your way.

Complete Privacy

Zero data collection — everything stays on your device. No tracking, no ads, no account required. Your browsing habits remain 100% private. All settings stored locally in your browser.

Lightweight & Fast

Minimal footprint that doesn't slow down your browser. Works instantly without page refreshes. Built specifically for Chrome and Firefox.
