What's the best app to help me focus / remove distractions while working?

I need something to help me get into a 'flow' state. Mac app would be ideal. Features like website blocking, etc.

Definitely Noisli is the app that save me from all the distractions by a easy ambient sound mix & match. As weird as it might sound I use rain, fire & airplane propellers. Great sound combo! They have web, chrome add-on, iOS and Android version.

Focus

A Mac app to block distracting websites

Focus works well. It blocks distracting webpages at certain times and replaces them with meaningful quotes.

That's exactly why I made this, but it does not block websites. On the plus side it means you need no additional setup. Launch it and work.
