About Monk Mode — Website Blocker & Focus Timer

# Monk Mode — Website Blocker & Focus Timer Block distracting websites. Start a focus timer. Stay productive. You sit down to work, open one tab, and 45 minutes disappear to social media. The algorithm won again. Monk Mode is a website blocker and focus timer designed to eliminate distractions and protect your deep work sessions. Whether you need a study timer, an ADHD productivity tool, or a way to block social media during work hours, Monk Mode keeps you on task. Install for free. Start blocking in under 10 seconds. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WEBSITE BLOCKER — BLOCK DISTRACTING SITES INSTANTLY Add any website to your block list — YouTube, X/Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, Facebook, and more. When a focus session is running, blocked sites are completely inaccessible. Visit a blocked page and you are redirected to a distraction-free screen reminding you to stay focused. • Block 13+ social media sites out of the box • Websites are blocked the moment your focus timer starts • Clean block page with motivational quotes ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FOCUS TIMER — POMODORO & CUSTOM SESSIONS Set a focus timer for any duration — 25 minutes (Pomodoro), 1 hour, 2 hours, or a custom length. While the timer is running, all sites on your block list are unreachable. Use it as a Pomodoro timer, a study timer, or a deep work session timer. • Quick-start presets: 25m, 45m, 60m, 90m, 120m • Custom duration input • Timer visible in the popup at all times ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SCREEN TIME TRACKER A floating timer overlay appears on social media sites showing exactly how long you have been browsing. Watch your screen time count up in real time. Set daily screen time limits — when the limit is reached, the site is automatically blocked for the rest of the day. • Real-time screen time display on every tracked site • Daily screen time limits per category • Automatic blocking when the limit expires ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRODUCTIVITY STATISTICS Track your focus streaks, daily session count, and blocked-site tally from a built-in dashboard. See your 7-day activity calendar at a glance. • Daily focus minutes and blocked site count • 7-day calendar overview • Progress visible every time you open the extension ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ UPGRADE TO PRO — UNLOCK 6 ADDITIONAL FEATURES Everything above is free, forever. Monk Mode Pro adds the features that make blocking permanent and fully automatic: • Strict Mode — Removes the stop button. Once you start a session, there is no way out until the timer ends. • Doomscroll Protection — Detects infinite scrolling and auto-blocks the page with a cooldown timer. • Auto-Schedules — Set recurring focus hours. Blocking activates and deactivates automatically every day. • Custom Site Blocking — Block any URL, not just the built-in list. • Screen Time Charts — See daily breakdowns by app and category. • All-Time Records — Lifetime streaks, total sessions, cumulative focus hours. • 8 additional apps — Discord, Spotify, Amazon, Telegram, Threads, Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video. One-time purchase. No subscription. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHO IS MONK MODE FOR? → Students — Block social media while studying for exams.
