Monitor your productivity, set daily limits on distractions, and build better browsing habits with Lock In.
Get up and running in less than a minute.
Click the extension icon and ensure the toggle is ON. Use the "Quick Add" button when visiting a distracting site, or manually type domains (e.g., youtube.com) in the Websites tab.
Go to Settings, under Time Limit make sure it says enabled, and set your daily max time. This limit applies specifically to the websites in your block list.
Select what happens when time runs out:
Redirect to a
site of your choosing
Block access completely with
optional disable
Warn with a reminder in the top
right corner
Periodically check the Dashboard to see your weekly usage. Insights can be viewed with the button "Learn more about your habits". Note that sites under 1 minute are hidden but are still counted.
