How to block Twitch
on Chrome.

The Browse and Following feed pulls you channel to channel for hours. You don't need to swear off Twitch entirely — you need to kill the part that eats your time. Refocus blocks Twitch (or just its feed) and keep the specific streams you open on purpose.

⏱ Block Twitch — free

Step by step

  1. Add Refocus to Chrome (free, no account).
  2. Add twitch.tv/directory to your blocklist — or the whole domain twitch.tv for a hard stop.
  3. Optionally set a night schedule or a daily limit so Twitch can't creep back.

Block the feed, not the whole site

Every other blocker is all-or-nothing. Refocus does path-level blocking, so keep the specific streams you open on purpose. It's 100% local — no account, nothing leaves your browser — and free forever.
