About Calm Web: Distraction‑Free Browsing

Calm Web is a lightweight extension for distraction-free browsing. It helps you stay focused by reducing common annoyances on the web: motion-heavy UI, unexpected autoplay, visual clutter, and attention-hijacking sections on popular sites. Use it as a gentle focus mode for everyday browsing — studying, working, reading long articles, or doing research — without aggressive blocking that can break websites. What it does Quiet Mode (reduce motion) Minimizes animations and motion effects for a more comfortable experience Designed to be conservative so pages keep working normally Autoplay control Helps prevent sudden sound by pausing or muting autoplay when possible Built to avoid breaking video players Reader View / Reading mode Turns articles into a clean reader view for easier reading Great for documentation, blogs, and long-form content YouTube Focus Hides distracting YouTube sections like recommendations and Shorts Helps you watch intentionally instead of getting pulled into endless suggestions Mindful Pause Optional gentle pause after long scrolling to reduce endless feed behavior Per-site control Disable Calm Web on any site in one click (banking, work tools, etc.) Your preferences stay on your device Privacy Calm Web works locally in your browser. No accounts, no tracking, and no data selling. Settings are stored locally using Chrome storage. If you’re looking for a calm, simple way to reduce distractions, this extension gives you a cleaner reading experience, a practical reader mode, and a flexible focus workflow — with easy on/off controls per website.
