Rewriting my review bc I've identified more issues. First off it's pretty good! It works pretty much as intended. When you get blocked by the extension you have the option to turn it off temporarily. But after that if you were being redirected by a site to Facebook for instance, that URL often won't work anymore. It's like a skipping stone hitting multiple points across the pond, but only making it one or two before it sinks. I wish there was a way to exclude instances where you're trying to sign into a website or mobile phone app with your Facebook account for example; this is one type of case where site redirects are common. If you're blocking that website (Facebook) you can't do that, so first if you're on your phone and trying to sign into a separate app, you have to go to your Firefox app, disable the extension, go back to the app you were trying to sign into, and try again. You could use a different browser as your default browser to try and avoid this but that kind of defeats the reason you added the extension at all lol. I hope this makes sense.

It just works.

does not work

Excellent, 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 :-)

good

This is the best add-on to block sites.
Simple and Easy
Awesome!
I will use this add-on forever.

Does exactly what it says it does

Works 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.

Doesn't work on android.

A cool tool to add to the arsenal for helping with specific addictions

Does not work

Great add, but sometimes there are compatibility issues. I still find it very useful.

works well but its like all the others were it blocks the site but there is also a site has been blocked page and i dont want that aswell sick of seeing https://order.veepn.com/pricing/?touchpoint%3DmenuUpgrade%26user_co%3Dau%26proxy_co%3D%5Bobject+Object%5D=&utm_source=firefox_extension&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=menuUpgrade

This app helps me stay on track so much. Thank you!

The extension takes permission to read ALL contents of ALL webpages we visit includings passwords or other data enter thereo

Tried like 5 other ones and they didn't work but this one works perfectly

Das 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.

Updating 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?

Would be great but sadly the extension doesn't lock websites I'm currently browsing after the pause time has run out. This lead to me surfing on youtube for hours instead of 5 minute breaks.

Please make it so that the extension checks the current used tab and reload it with a block view when the pause time has run out.
