- Rated 1 out of 5by S1711, a year agoNeed to create an account for a website blocker extension - or else it doesn't work!?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12878065, 3 years agoA website blocker that requires you to sign up for an account and then pay a subscription and run a desktop app? Yeah, no thanks. I mean, sure, if they're selling an entire block-all-apps-suite, have at it. But advertising this addon as a website blocker, then requiring you to sign up for an account is a bit bleh. I'm sure it would make for much better PR for the rest of the tools, if the addon was usable as a standalone website blocker, with no account-forcing necessary.
- Rated 1 out of 5by willc, 4 years agoApp looked great, but I'm annoyed by the deceptive way in which they encourage you to download, sign up and only then tell you that it's a paid-for product. Pricing needs to be much clearer.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12908324, 4 years agoIt's not that I dislike Freedom as a service--in fact, I like it quite a lot-- but the browser extension just doesn't seem to be doing anything to help, and the computer works exactly the same way, whether you have the extension installed or not. I do not see any point in installing this extension at all.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15892724, 5 years agoThe extension is useless because it requires the desktop app...which blocks Firefox automatically on MacOS. I can't run a freedom session and firefox at the same time.

Edit 1: Developer said they'd take a look, but a year later, it still does this.
Original review:
Still has the exact same issue I contacted support about at least a year ago: When you go to a blocked website, it redirects to the "green screen" without keeping the original website in the tab's history, so you can't even keep track of what website you tried to open so you can visit it later.
