good, but if you try to enter a site, then resign and type new url, after the time set it will load that site instead, that I think is not desirable exampla xyz.com is on my delay site (30sec setup) chess.com is not I try to enter xyz.com it shows me delay screen I type in the same tab google.com google.com opens after 30sec it opens xyz.com Can you fix that?

This is doing exactly what I need it to, unfortunately I am weak willed, and sometimes go to turn it off if I have an hour to kill so I can watch YouTube, since I use this app to completely block me off from it. The only issue is that when I go to turn it off, if I go to extensions and click on delay to open the control window, it doesn't open. Not exactly sure what the issue is, may be user error, but I have to reinstall in order to be able to access it again. This is actually a positive sin... Show more

There are similar options that are less buggy. I love the functionality, but after the page load, there's a second reload that brings me back to the original page I was waiting for, even if I already navigated away. Very jarring and potentially dangerous, as it could end up marking a message as read and then sending me elsewhere without reading it.

Delay only works on going to site. Not when navigating through site. When you go to youtube it delays, but then if you click a video, there is no delay anymore. That is annoying as I want a tool to prevent binge-watching

This was intentional design. Once you stay for the duration of a delay that tab is then allowed to continue browsing.

Great extension helped me a lot . It would have been better if you could see a message which you wanted to see when you opened a website that you had added to the delay list for example if while adding www.youtube.com to the delay list i could write a message like " don't waste time here " and next time i visited youtube.com i could see the message that i typed . Anyway Thanks for making this

Thanks for the Review! I'll look into the message idea, would you want to be able to create a custom message for each URL? Or a single generic message that will show for them all?

really good but would be better if it reset the timer if you leave the tab during the delay, like this extension does :) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/crackbook-revival/fakedinbmdjifniaepnfbplcheaecebc

Update 0.2.01 is out, now you will have to focus on the tab for it to go down

This has really helped me stay away from few websites, It would be a great feature, if I could have custom message for each site as I am waiting to open the site.

I removed it and went for a different extension. Initially, I thought it did the trick for me, but unfortunately I was able to circumvent the block by going to previously watched videos, and I could wait for multiple tabs to load through the waiting time. I found a different extension that really puts me in my place. I did like the metrics though, and miss that on other extensions

Another update is out that might help! You now have to be focused on the tab for it to countdown, when you navigate away the clock stops, should solve half of your issue, Thanks!
