Overview

Track and limit your browsing time on each website to aid self-quantification, combat addiction, and enhance productivity.

Track, analyze, and limit your time spent on each website. SurfPal is your surfing companion online, helping you measure and improve your browsing habits. The following core features make SurfPal stand out: ★ Data Analysis: • Supports viewing by day, week, and month granularity, displaying drill-down charts on the same screen, allowing you to analyze data more intuitively. • Organizes data based on domains in a tree structure, enabling you to view data for any domain level. • You can freely choose to view data for a single or multiple websites. • You can select any time range to view, with the maximum support for viewing data for a range of 3 years at once. • Supports exporting data in CSV format for use with other software. • Query parameters and URL are bound together, allowing you to bookmark analytics pages with different parameters as you would regular webpages. ★ Time Limit: • Supports configuring global rules, group rules, and site rules. • Supports customizing the period, rotation time point, maximum duration, and effective days. • Utilizes rule priorities to implement complex requirements such as global time limits while exempting specific sites. • After being restricted, you can temporarily ignore the limit for 10 minutes, 1 hour, or one day. ★ Website Grouping: • You can create custom website groups to easily apply bulk restrictions and query the usage duration of these sites. ★ Data Synchronization: • Automatically sync data between your devices every 10 minutes and avoid losing it due to uninstallation or other issues. This feature works by directly connecting the browser extension to Google Drive, ensuring your data never touches our servers. ★ Others: • Supports daily or weekly data report generation. • Supports data backup and recovery, making it easier to transfer to other devices. • When deleting data, you can specify the time range and website. • Supports dark theme. We hope that SurfPal can become a powerful assistant for you to efficiently manage and improve your web browsing habits, helping you achieve a healthy balance in internet use through its unique features.

lets say i set a time limit of 2 hours for a group. is that 2 hours for each thing in the group, or 2 hours for everything in it combined? edit: another question, is there an option to change it from 00-N to the 12 hour clock time? like 2pm instead of 14oclock thank you so much

Thank you for your feedback! The time limit you set for a group applies to the combined browsing time across all websites within that group. So, in your example, the 2-hour limit would be for the total time spent on all the websites in the group collectively, not for each individual website within the group. The 12-hour time format is not currently supported, but it's a worthwhile feature to implement. I will add this option in a future release. (Due to space limitations, the am/pm suffix in chart axis labels will be omitted.) Follow-up: Version 1.2.0 has been released, and from this version onwards, SurfPal supports configuring time format.

What a great extension, thank you. However, I can easily unblock the website in time limit. There is nothing stopping me to reset everything. We need strict rules to prevent the unblocking.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll work on improving this. The tricky part right now is that it's pretty easy to disable extensions in Chrome, so I can't completely force people to stop. In the future, I'll add some features to make people less likely to stay on the website. Follow-up: Starting from version 1.3.0, you can set rules to be unignorable, which will prevent you from ignoring rules on the block page.
