About SitePause - Block and Delay Addictive Sites

Take back control of your time and overcome doomscrolling. SitePause introduces a mindful delay before access your most distracting websites. SitePause acts as a gentle but effective speed bump. By forcing a customizable wait time, it interrupts the impulsive habit loop of opening distracting sites, making it the perfect productivity tool for ADHD management, students, and professionals. KEY FEATURES - Mindful Friction Page: When you attempt to visit a distracting site, you are met with a beautifully designed, distraction-free pause screen. This forces you to stop and think before proceeding. - Customizable Delays: You control the friction. Set a mandatory wait time (in seconds) that must pass before you are allowed to bypass the block. - Flexible Bypass Options: Need to actually use the site for work? Once the timer finishes, you can grant yourself access for a specific duration (e.g., 10 minutes). - Quick Peek Mode: Enable this feature to quickly bypass the friction page for a strict 1-minute window, perfect for checking a single message without getting sucked into a feed. - Active & Inactive Scheduling: Create a custom weekly schedule to automatically enable or pause blocking. WHY CHOOSE SITEPAUSE? Total website blockers often fail because they are too rigid, leading users to simply disable the extension when they face friction. SitePause works with your psychology. By introducing a required waiting period, it drastically reduces impulsive browsing while still giving you the autonomy to access sites when you genuinely need them. Stop losing hours to mindless scrolling. Install SitePause today, build healthier digital habits, and reclaim your focus.
