Latest version
Version 1.4.0
Released Nov 13, 2026 - 58.29 KBWorks with firefox 113.0 and laterNew: Daily usage limits
- Give a site a daily time budget, different for each day of the week (e.g. 30 minutes on Mondays, an hour at weekends). Once it's used up, the site is blocked until midnight.
- Only time you actually spend on the site counts: the tab must be in front while you're active, or playing sound. Nothing counts while you're away or the screen is locked.
- A rule can use a schedule, daily limits, or both.
- While you're on a limited site, the toolbar icon shows the minutes you have left.
New: Per-rule snooze settings
- For each rule, choose how long a snooze lasts (1–15 minutes) and how many you get per day (1–3).
- A redesigned blocked page shows why a site is blocked, until when, how much of today's limit you've used, and the snoozes you have left.
Improvements
- One rule now covers a whole site: example.com also blocks www.example.com and m.example.com.
- Navigation inside a page (without a reload) is now caught, e.g. moving from a site's home page to a blocked section like example.com/videos.
- You can now switch a rule on while it's inside its blocking window. Switching off, editing, and deleting stay locked.
- A rule with a daily limit is locked once you've started using that day's limit.
- Importing rules is refused while any rule is active, and imported files are now checked for invalid rules.
- A snooze running at midnight now lasts its full time instead of being cut off.
- Requires Firefox 113 or later.
Fixes
- Links with several query parameters no longer lose everything after the first "&" after a snooze.
- A "*" in a domain pattern no longer matches text in another site's address.
- The blocked page shows the correct end time for overnight windows.
- Weekly schedules now start and end on time.
- Fixed a loop when pressing Go Back on the blocked page.
- Rules with the same start and end time are no longer accepted.
