When I write the quote in input field, it should show on the screen the input I give. I want to look like this "Lorem ipsum. Something something. Lorem ipsum. Hello world. Hello everyone." But after saving, all the writings are getting together. It is happening like this ==> "Lorem ipsum. Something something. Lorem ipsum. Hello world. Hello everyone."

I cannot turn off the social buttons in the options? I see the toggle in there, but I cannot click it in the options on brave browser.

Much better if the timer works the same as pomodoro timer! 25 min work 5 min break ans so on till 2 hours.

This is a good. It is effective in hindering me from procrastinating. However, there are instances when timers don't start or work.

It is quite good. However some sites like reaperscans.com makes the content to go on right side.

I adore this extesion, it's one of the site-blocking extensions that has actually worked quite well for me. Although, I've been trying to build the habit of not turning it on and off so easily, but overall it has worked wonders, and I find that I've stopped procrastinating on smaller tasks a good deal. Thank you so much for creating such a lovely resource!

After 5 years i still love this extension helps with not procrastinating but sometimes i just turn it off but the only real flaw you have a limit of sites you can block kinda sad still please download super good

Blocks webs very fast, doing it before they show up (others don't). Also, you can write positive words or messages instead of the webs you don't want to see, which does make you feel better. If you check news automatically when you are distracted, and then you find yourself immerse in an "interesting" article that wasn't the main thing you were going to do at that moment, this is a total time-saver. It'd be even better if no time-warp word+icon was displayed so that the one- two seconds it takes to close the tab your eyes could be focused on the positive message left instead of on the timewarp icon. At least you can disable social buttons. I love it. Yet what about exporting/importing in bulk? We have different profiles and browsers and sometimes need to reinstall... Pretty please?

So far so good. I would REALLY love a feature whereby I could go to (whatever time-wasting website) but it would just make it a little harder, by making me type a sentence (of my chosing). Having a little speedbump like this would be a huge help. Also - would love to be able to put in a TON of websites, and have them all get the same settings


Steve Schilz (Work) December 6th, 2018

This is a great app - I keep it installed at work and I can set the amount of time per day that I'm allowed on Facebook, or news sites ... Keeps me honest!


Abiel George October 11th, 2018
Abiel George

Really helpful, I have exams coming up and find myself constantly going to YouTube and Netflix and this really keeps me on course. Hiding helps me not just disable it. It would be nice to make it hard to disable, something like a simple maths problem that we could change difficulty, so I am not tempted.


Abhishek Tiwari September 1st, 2018
Abhishek Tiwari

can't believe I was searching for this app and never thought such a weird request of mine would be up here on store. Love the wormhole section - JUST what I needed!! 5/5 although the option to not be able to disable it would be great :D


Nick Kartashov August 18th, 2018
Nick Kartashov

A great extension! One thing that can be improved is to be able to have multiple sites on one timer.


Elijah July 19th, 2018

I'd like if I could use both a timer and a quote on certain websites that I don't want to block, but want to limit how much time I spend on them.


Peter Atkinson June 3rd, 2018
Peter Atkinson

Excellent application for redirecting URLS from distracting websites. I have mine set up so that it forwards me to a google document of my life goals, so that I'm reminded what I'm costing myself by not using my time well. Very helpful!

Phil S April 8th, 2018

Great plugin. However, it doesn't function that well with pinned tabs (which are always open), as it relies on the loading and refreshing of the pages in order to embed the timer. So it's not enough just to enable Timewarp - you need to manually refresh all your pinned tabs too. Also, it would be nice to have the timer flash red for the last two minutes, to try to warn you to finish or save what you're writing. Finally, I want to limit or block the chrome store itself (chrome.google.com) because it is one of my procrastination triggers, but Timewarp cannot block it.


Tim Borny April 2nd, 2018
Tim Borny

Great extension for productivity. One feature I'd love to see would be the ability to disable the blocking for a set amount of time. Say I wanted a 5, 10, or 20 minute break, I could right click the icon and set a timer that would disable allow me to browse freely until the time limit is up.


Halina Goldstein February 28th, 2018

Works great! The only thing I miss is the ability to drag it. Every position has its pros and cons, and sometimes it just comes in the way regardless where it sits. Thanks!

José Gomes October 22nd, 2017

Amazing extension if you need that extra bit of motivation and self control, use a good and powerful quote and set realistic timers so you won't find yourself turning it off. Just needs a few more features, ie: blocking only a certain part/url of a website, for example I would like to block reddit but still be able to visit productivity related subreddits.

Jason K October 11th, 2017

this extension has saved me multiple times when rushing for a deadline. I wish there is also a Firefox extension. Also, if you can add an option to show a quote before the website or to show the quote on the banner while on the website that would be awesome.

one of the Bestest app out there.


John Mandrake September 16th, 2017

You know what would make this even better? If I could get a different quote everytime I tried to go on a website. It could be like I'm talking to myself, and becoming sterner and sterner the more times I try, it would make it so much better.

I just love this extension as i am a procastinator and waste a lot of time.It is better than StayFocusd.


Tim Bratton May 6th, 2017
Tim Bratton

I like it, but here are a couple changes that would be helpful. 1. It would be good to make it so that after seeing the quote you had an option to proceed to the blocked site (without turning off the extension). That way the quote could continue to serve as a motivating buffer, but would still allow you the freedom to visit the site if need be. 2. Make it so that the size of the timer can be increased. I find that the timer is too small to be very motivating for me to limit my time.

Just what I was looking for, super small file size too.


David Jeong February 26th, 2017
David Jeong

It seems great, but you can easily turn it off. Also, there are some websites that the app doesn't recognize as a website, like game servers and webs that don't end with ".com". It would be great if they fixed that.

This app is almost everything I wanted! Thank you so much for making it! I just wish there were customizable options for blocking sites using the timer... like 20 or 15 minutes!

Karthik Srinivasan December 10th, 2016
Karthik Srinivasan

Super useful :) One quick suggestion: Shall we have 15/20 minute timers? For some of my sites, 15/20 minute times are ideal. 10 is too less and 30 is too much :)


Valmamusic December 8th, 2016
Valmamusic

Great; best for me. Yet no no option to add and edit webs in bulk... (hopefully for a short time?)


Dayton Segard November 28th, 2016
Dayton Segard

This is a nice extension. It would be nice to have the option of making the timer universal rather than per site. I want to track total time on all distracting sites together more than time spent on each site. That would let me know how much time per day I've spent wasting time.


jorge coque October 31st, 2016

wow...awesome!!! just the anti-procrastinator app i wanted!! simple and effective. like the concept of wormholes and timers!!! now i can be productive!


Raven X August 9th, 2016
Raven X

Whilst I liked the general idea behind this extension I personally just could not get it to work. I'm using Vivaldi so that might be the reason but every other chrome plugin has worked so far... The idea is good but the execution definitely needs some work.


Fatima Ghiasi August 6th, 2016
Fatima Ghiasi

This is super helpful. It's just that it has a maximum of 50 sites you can block. I want to block more than 50 sites.

Simply Effective as far as compared with other time tracking apps.. With limited no of options, this extension is one of the best in its category....!!!


Praful P Pai March 13th, 2016
Praful P Pai

Simple and effective. Gives a limited set of options and works well when you want to limit your browsing. A limiting factor is the addition of websites to the 'blocklist'. It would be helpful to create a list from which to quickly choose the usual suspects like facebook and youtube. Or an option might be to simply click the timewarp button when on a particular website which we want to add to the blocklist.


Grant Halsall March 13th, 2016

I'm sure it works fine for other things, but i tried to make a homepage redirect me to a subpage in the same site but it wouldn't let me.


Sam September 3rd, 2015

Please make it not so easy to remove a site for the blacklist/wormhole thing. it only takes a few user interacts before I can access the site I'm trying to ween myself off. Maybe I'm just weak willed...

This extension does more than it claims. I don't recall when this extension was first installed. After advertisements started popping up on advertisement-free pages, I suspected I had been hit by malware. As noted by previous reviews, after removing this extension, the ads stopped.

Works great. Good interface. It's a little barrier that makes a big difference. Suggestion would be to let you save quotes to reuse (I use the same one for everything).


Kara Joy April 16th, 2014
Kara Joy

This is an excellent extension that has everything I need. It doesn't feel super restraining, like some other ones I tried, but instead allows for some flexibility depending on what I'm working on. I'll recommend this to others!


Julia R. Huynh March 21st, 2014
Julia R. Huynh

Love it, it works. (: but i would like it if you could mix the wormhole types. As well, if you could give a warning five minutes or ten seconds before closing. && random motivational quotes? Thank you!


Felippe Nardi March 5th, 2014
Felippe Nardi

This is the best chrome extension for blocking websites EVER! I would love to see random motivational quotes instead of having to set my own.

Doesn't work for me. Added a time warp and nothing happens, I can still access the site and everything.


Shawn Tan December 17th, 2013

Very nice extension. I'd suggest adding a feature where you could turn off and on various redirects, so that you wouldn't have to re-input the domains after deleting them.

It's really great thing for all procrastinators in the world!


Matthew Lawrence November 3rd, 2013
Matthew Lawrence

This is a great extension, the only thing missing for me is the option to set up a redirect/quote where once you've arrived at it, you can continue on to the site if you wish to. i.e. "Are you sure you want to visit this site? "*click here to continue to youtube* *click here to close tab*


Nancy Ochieng October 25th, 2013
Nancy Ochieng

Honestly couldn't ask for more. The writing on the quote is big enough to "shock" you into getting back on track.


Matheus E. Ramos October 9th, 2013
Matheus E. Ramos

Brilliant, you active it when you need to focus and inactive it when you don't. That simple and effective. This is for the procrastinators like me who can press Ctrl+T + "F" + "Enter" to access Facebook without notice. Now I see a big motivational quote! Recommended.

Andrew Ross August 15th, 2013

Works exactly as you'd expect, especially on the timers (they only count if you're on the page, and all pages under that domain count on the same timer - awesome!) If it could store and/or send me my timer totals at the end of the day, that would be all I could ask for.


Emre Eser August 13th, 2013
Emre Eser

黃凡 July 22nd, 2013

This is brilliant. Just the Timer alone is an idea I wish developers could have came up with sooner. I'm sure the extension will get closer to perfect since the developer must be the more focused one :-)

An absolute MUST if you are serious about combatting procrastination!


Steve Hoffman July 17th, 2013
Steve Hoffman

It's a great idea, and very good implementation. However, it needs a serious tweak to supplant other similar systems. If you simply reduce the browser window to the task bar, or lock your computer, it still counts time on the active website, which overstates the time spent there. Address this, and it will get 5 stars.

after installing this app my right mouse click no longer works, nor does my settings button in chrome, makes me have to delete and re-install chrome just to get it rid of this rubbish
