- Rated 3 out of 5by Celtice, 5 months agoIt's okay. Better on desktop. Mobile version doesn't have pause/toggle buttons in the pop-up, or at least they're not showing up for me despite having those options turned on in the settings. If the timer ends while you're on a blocked page, nothing happens until you change the page completely, i.e., not scrolling through an infinite post feed. No export/import options for site lists either. Social media logins and redirects are funky.
- Rated 5 out of 5by mados123, a year agoExcellent, simple tool to block impulses towards procrastination. Really helped me with a bad loop I was in. *Do not* click the options Show On/Off Buttons and Show Pause Buttons in Popup for maximum efficacy :-)
- Rated 5 out of 5by domo, a year agoThis is the best add-on to block sites.
Simple and Easy
Awesome!
I will use this add-on forever. - Rated 5 out of 5by Rudolf_Snail, 2 years agoWorks very well and it doesn't have the bug that Digital Detox has. Although it doesn't have websites blocked by default, when you download it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Double_Dead, 2 years agoTried like 5 other ones and they didn't work but this one works perfectly
- Rated 3 out of 5by Jan, 2 years agoDas Add-On tut was es soll: Es blockiert die Nutzung von Webseiten. Das Hinzufügen von neuen Webseiten ist einfach und intuitiv und der Pause-Modus prinzipiell sinnvoll. -> 4 Sterne
Ein Stern Abzug, weil nach Ablaufen der Pausezeit geöffnete Webseiten nicht blockiert werden und die es keine Möglichkeiten gibt die Pausenzeiten besser zu konfigurieren. - Rated 4 out of 5by Evert Pot, 3 years agoUpdating my review: Add-on didn't do anything initially but after a restart seems to work!
Some UX suggestions:
* It's unclear if 'Block' and 'Allow' turn the setting on or off (the colors have the opposite of what you'd expect, so it should be checkbox or an on/off slider).
* The on/off radios are also confusing. What do they do?
