FocusDetour — Productive Redirects

Use daily limits to redirect distracting sites, with an optional distraction-free YouTube mode.

FocusDetour helps you use social media intentionally without relying on an all-or-nothing blocker. Give each distracting website a small daily allowance. When that time is used, FocusDetour redirects new visits and refreshes to a productive destination you choose—such as a coding challenge, course, documentation page, or study dashboard. Features: • Independent daily allowance for every configured website • Custom source and destination for each redirect • Live remaining-time display • Automatic daily reset at your chosen hour • Simple enable/disable control • Daily focus-redirect count • Optional distraction-free YouTube video mode • Optional YouTube sidebar and comments hiding • Shorts blocking and current-video lock • Settings stored locally in your browser • No extension accounts, analytics, ads, or data transmission FocusDetour includes editable examples for Facebook, Instagram, X, Reddit, and TikTok. Replace them with any websites and learning destinations that support your goals. YouTube Focus works independently, starts off, and requests access to YouTube only when you choose to enable it.
