🌊 SurfSense: Make Every Click Count Reclaim your digital time and boost your productivity. SurfSense is your intelligent Chrome companion that tracks how long you spend on each website and helps you understand, reflect, and improve your digital habits — effortlessly. With a companion Android app also called SurfSense, you can monitor your aggregated usage across platforms and gain deeper insight into your digital life. 🌟 Key Features ⏱️ Automatic Time Tracking SurfSense quietly runs in the background and monitors how long you spend on each website. It activates only when a tab is in focus and your browser is in use, ensuring precise tracking without draining resources. 📊 Top 5 Time-Consuming Sites Every time you open the extension popup, you’ll see your top 5 most-visited websites based on time spent. Get instant insights into where your attention is going. 🧠 Behavioral Awareness Seeing your top sites encourages reflection: Are you spending too much time on distractions like social media or news sites? SurfSense prompts subtle mindfulness. 🎯 Daily and Weekly Trends Understand your browsing behavior over time. SurfSense gives you a breakdown of your usage today, this week, and even offers historical comparisons — all visible in the SurfSense Android app. 🚨 Custom Alerts & Soft Limits Set optional time limits per domain. For example, if you don’t want to spend more than 30 minutes on a certain site per day, SurfSense will gently alert you when you approach the limit. 🌈 Beautiful, Clean UI A distraction-free interface designed for clarity and focus. Whether you’re a student, professional, or casual browser, SurfSense fits seamlessly into your daily routine. 🔒 Privacy-First by Design We believe your data is yours. All time-tracking is stored locally in your browser and never sent to any server unless explicitly linked to the mobile app. No cookies, no third-party analytics, no tracking. 💡 Use Cases Productivity Monitoring: See how much time you spend on work vs entertainment sites.
