About Unleash Focus
Unleash Focus blocks the sites that pull you away, with one click, on your terms.
Put your distracting sites on a list. Click the padlock and they're blocked until you click it again. No schedules to set up and no timers to fight: lock when you start focusing, unlock when you're done.
Features
• One-click lock and unlock for your whole list.
• The padlock snaps shut with a satisfying clunk, and the toolbar icon shows at a glance whether you're locked.
• Blocks whole sites, including subdomains like m.facebook.com or old.reddit.com.
• Tabs already open on a blocked site switch to the locked page when you lock, and go back to where they were when you unlock.
• YouTube Shorts switch: blocks Shorts and hides Shorts shelves while the rest of YouTube stays open for tutorials and long videos.
• No sneaking out mid-focus: sites can't be removed and Shorts can't be switched off while locked.
• Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+L (Option+Shift+L on Mac).
• Sounds can be muted.
Privacy
• No account, no tracking, no ads, no servers.
• Your list and settings are stored only on your device.
• Chrome asks for access one site at a time, only for sites you add.
• Open source: github.com/AyushUnleashed/unleash-focus
Tip: to block sites in incognito windows too, open the extension's details in chrome://extensions and turn on "Allow in Incognito".
