Dwell – Website Time Tracker & Focus Mode

For students and remote workers: see where your web time goes, set daily limits, and block distractions when you need to focus.

Where does your day online go? Dwell shows you, site by site and hour by hour, and helps you take that time back. Made for students, remote workers, freelancers and anyone who opens "just one tab" and loses an hour. SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES • Time on every website, counted automatically, only while the tab is active and you're actually there • Today's total and a 7-day chart, plus "vs last week" so you can see if you're improving • Click counts for each site • Time-of-day heatmap that shows which hours you browse the most • Subdomains grouped under their site (mail.google.com and docs.google.com count as google.com) • Keeps counting while you watch a video or read a PDF, even if you don't touch the mouse • PDFs and text files opened from your computer are counted too STAY IN CONTROL • Daily limits per site, from 15 minutes to 3 hours, with a notification when you reach one • Toolbar badge with today's time on the current site; it turns red when you're over your limit • Tag sites as Productive or Distracting and see your daily split and "% productive" score • Focus mode: block your distracting sites for 25 or 50 minutes with one click • Blocked sites: block any site all the time • Ignore list: never track sites like your bank YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • Everything is stored only on your computer: no account, no servers, no analytics, no ads • Export your history as CSV or JSON at any time • Choose how long history is kept (7, 14 or 30 days) and clear it whenever you like PLEASANT TO USE • Clean orange design with light and dark themes • Lightweight, works offline, updates live HOW TO START 1. Pin Dwell to your toolbar 2. Browse as usual 3. Click the icon to see where your time went. Click any site for its own chart, a daily limit and a category. ABOUT PERMISSIONS Chrome shows "Read and change all your data on all websites" because Dwell counts your clicks on each site and shows a "blocked" page on sites you choose to block. It never reads page content and never sends anything anywhere.
