A website blocker built for studying.

Studying needs unbroken attention. Refocus blocks the feeds that pull you away, runs a focus timer for study sprints, and keeps a live clock on every tab so time never disappears — free, and nothing leaves your browser.

⏱ Add Refocus to Chrome — free

How it works

1. Start a focus sprint — distracting sites go dark until the timer ends.
2. Block just the feed so you keep research, docs and search.
3. Set a night schedule for late-night study. Free, local, no account.

The idea: block the feed, not the site

Every other blocker is all-or-nothing. Refocus blocks just the infinite-scroll surface and keeps the messages, search and pages you actually need — so it actually holds. 100% local: no account, nothing leaves your browser. Free forever.
