The extension automatically uses your browser's language. No additional setup is required.
Your browsing history, blocked website addresses and rule contents stay on your device. Optional technical analytics are disabled by default and never include browsing activity.
Block sites with a single click. Blocking rules are stored locally and processed by the extension on your device.
Universal Pro License. One license covers supported browsers across your devices, whether you choose Monthly, Annual, or Lifetime access. Use your Pro key with Chrome, Firefox and Edge on desktop, plus supported Firefox and Edge versions on Android.
Prevents accidental rule deletion with a 10-second countdown. Keeps you disciplined.
Lift your spirits and stay productive while blocking distractions.
Force total discipline instantly. Free mode triggers 25-minute sprints. Pro unlocks custom durations from 1 to 240 minutes and an inescapable Hardcore lock that survives browser restarts and blocks rule modification.
Organize rules into named profiles such as Work or Study. Switch the active profile to change which rules, categories, schedules, and Daily Limits are currently in effect.
Create flexible schedules with different day groups and time periods. Set work hours for weekdays, separate weekend periods, or overnight blocking that continues into the next day.
Give selected sites a daily time budget instead of blocking them immediately. Visible foreground use counts toward the limit; when the budget is exhausted, blocking begins until the next local day.
Create exclusion rules to keep critical work or study sites accessible. Cross-conflict validation prevents contradictory or redundant rules between your block list and whitelist.
Lock your settings with a password. Prevents "cheating" and ensures accountability.
Back up your rules or transfer them between supported browsers using JSON files.
Visualize your progress. See how many times blocked rules were triggered and track your successfully completed Focus Sessions.

No. BlockDistraction processes website blocking locally on your device. We do not collect, store, or sell your browsing history, visited website addresses, blocked website addresses, rule contents, or passwords. Optional technical analytics and anonymous error reports are disabled by default and never include browsing activity. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Yes. BlockDistraction is publicly documented and indexed by independent developer resources. This allows anyone to learn how the extension works, its permissions, and its technical architecture. We believe transparency helps users make informed decisions. Read the technical overview →
No. That is the core feature. Once a Pro user starts a Focus Session with Hardcore Mode enabled, the cancel button disappears, and rule modifications are completely frozen. Even closing the browser, restarting your computer, or killing the process will not lift the block - the extension immediately resumes the lockdown upon startup until the timer expires.
When you activate any Pro plan - Monthly, Annual, or Lifetime - you receive a License Key linked to your account. You can use the same key with supported browsers on your computer, including Chrome, Firefox and Edge, and with supported Firefox and Microsoft Edge versions on Android.
Monthly and Annual subscriptions start with a 7-day free trial. Lifetime is a one-time purchase, so it does not use a subscription trial. Instead, the same 14-day money-back guarantee gives Lifetime customers 14 days after purchase to evaluate Pro and request a full refund by contacting support.
Yes. Open the Danger Zone in My Account and replace the key. Your current key will stop validating immediately, and you will need to enter the new key in every installed copy of BlockDistraction. A key can be replaced once every 24 hours.
