📌
Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m the creator of Focuser, a completely free browser extension made for anyone who wants to stay focused and avoid digital distractions.
🧠 Why I built Focuser
I kept finding myself jumping onto sites like YouTube to look up something quick, and the next thing I know, 10–15 minutes have flown by and I’ve forgotten what I was doing. It turned into a habit: visiting distracting sites almost unconsciously, not even for a specific task. Focuser was born to break that cycle.
🔧 What Focuser does
• Blocks distracting sites like YouTube during your focus time
• Lets you access a blocked site if you need to, after specifying a reason and time limit
• Displays a reminder of your goal and a countdown, helping you stay mindful of your focus
• Encourages a more intentional, goal‑oriented browsing mindset
🎯 Who it’s for
Designed for anyone who wants to stop losing time to social media, video sites, or algorithmic feeds, people who want to use the web consciously and efficiently.
💡 What makes Focuser different
• free, no paid tiers or hidden fees
• Helps form awareness around automatic browsing habits
• Promotes intentional web use, not just blocking
📩 I’d love your thoughts
It was initially developed to help me focus every day, and I hope it helps others too. Try it out, and please share how you use Focuser and any feedback you have.
Thank you for checking it out 💬

I really love it ! I have the same problem as you, I usually jump in Youtube and I was exactly looking for a product like yours. So thank you :) I wish the best of luck for this launching ! See you, Tom
@immunefomo I downloaded it and I would love to have the possibility to create sessions of work. For example, from 8am to 12pm, YouTube is locked, and from 1pm to 10pm it is also locked. Otherwise it is really great !

@immunefomo Hi Anatolii, I saw the updates with the work sessions. Definitely great. I have been using the tool for around 20 days and it completely changed my way of using YouTube (in a good way of course). Many thanks for that! See you, Tom

I just tried Focuser and wow — what a game changer! It gave me a real boost of energy and clarity. For the first time in a while, I powered through all my tasks without getting sucked into endless distractions. I finally stayed focused long enough to finish everything I had planned for the day — and even had the headspace to write this review!
Huge thanks to the creator — this extension is exactly what I didn’t know I needed.

I occasionally thought about getting something to fight procrastination, but never followed through. Then I randomly saw Focuser, installed it, and was surprised how simple and effective it is. Now I waste way less time on distractions. Great tool.
