- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12830789, 7 years agoThanks for developing this for Android!!
Also, i have a problem, there is no way to add entry with contextual menu like PC version, will you add this in the future? - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13747774, 7 years agoIt is a very good add on that gives your self-control a bit of help. Obviously it's no match for a determined frickarounder, but does objectively help quite a bit.
-1 star because they took away the quick add to block set option. If I want to ADD a site to options, I have to go into options now. Also, it would be nice if it required a restart to disable this add on. As it is, it does not.Developer response
posted 7 years agoYou can still add the current site to a block set. Either right-click on the toolbar button or on the web page. As for preventing disable, see this FAQ entry: http://www.proginosko.com/leechblock/faq/hide-addon/ - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13882426, 7 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13797655, 7 years agoWould be great with a time zone that matches my own! When I get the "page blocked" message, it seems set to British standard time while mine would be Central European time (British + 1 hour).

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13576026, 7 years agoReally great addon but is there any way to hide the addon from the addon list like it used to be?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13560640, 7 years agoIn the previous version, I liked it that when using the delaying page, whenever the page went out of focus the countdown was canceled and had to be restarted. Is there a way to make the NG version work this way again?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Gió Scarberg, 7 years agoSimply one of best add-ons on firefox and a safe-time companion for an university student like me!!
Only one peak keeps me from 5 stars... Android compability!!! It still suffers from Android integration, I hope this will be fixed soon. NOTHING IS MORE TIME-WASTING THAN A G**DAMN SMARTPHONE!!! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12497155, 7 years agoAwesome add on and awesome dev!
Would love a feature to temporarily disable the app (for example; right click, deactivate for x minutes) since the sites I block are occasionally needed for work, and going into the add on menu is a bit tiresome.
Thanks a lot and keep up the great work! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13489341, 7 years agoCan't I register a local page to "the page to show instead of these blocked sites"?
I entered the path of the page but it didn't work...
I entered like this "file:///G:/path/file.html" but nothing happened.
I understand! Thank you for your kindness!!Developer response
posted 7 years agoI did some research and it looks like Firefox 57 won't allow extensions to open local files. :(

The lack of it really limits the functionality of the add-on. Nevertheless, this is the best program of its kind that I've ever found.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Philipp, 7 years agoWorks well. A bit of UI work in the settings to make it less confusing to use would be nice -- but that doesn't make this addon less useful.
