What’s new in version 1.4.1?

                reflect is a digitally mindful chrome extension that encourages users to reflect on their relationship with technology rather than block users outright.

When you attempt to visit distracting websites, reflect will ask you what your intention in doing so is. If you have a valid reason, you are given a set amount of time to get your work done on the website. If not, you are encouraged to be more specific in your answer or to reflect further.

For example, if you're trying to access YouTube to watch an educational video, you can enter the website; however, if you just want to watch cat videos, reflect will prevent you from doing so. You can customize the list of blocked websites and the duration that the websites will be blocked. 

We don't show ads or collect/store data. 

We're also an open-source project! You can find our source code here: https://github.com/getreflect/reflect-chrome.

It doesn't let you simply input the sites you want to block, you have to visit the site, and then it just lets you block the page itself. Frustrating UI.

Hmm, only certain words will let you into the site that you have blacklisted. For example, if you type "I want to look at my messages" or "i'm trying to catch up with my friends" or "im trying to talk to my loved ones", it won't let you in but if you type in "i plan to be mindful", it will. Other keywords like "peaceful, breathe, serene, meditate" etc might help as well. Wonder what other words will let you in. A unique concept that does make me feel annoyed I cannot access my websites easily even though i really do want to talk to my friends or loved ones.
