Item media 1 (screenshot) for Trick Focus

Overview

Tricks the browser into thinking the tab is always visible, even when you switch windows.

Keep tabs alive & focused! Stop websites from pausing when you look away! 🚀 Tired of websites dictating how you browse? You switch tabs to check an email, and suddenly your video pauses, your game freezes, or your download throttles. Trick Focus gives you back control. It prevents websites from detecting that they are in the background. By simulating browser focus, it tricks pages into believing you are actively looking at them, even when minimized or on a different tab. 🔥 Why install Trick Focus? 🚫 Multitask Through Ads: Hate it when a video ad pauses just because you switched tabs? Trick Focus keeps the site "active" so the ad timer finishes in the background while you do something productive. 🎮 Dominate Idle Games: Perfect for idle games that stop progression when inactive. Keep farming resources and leveling up without keeping the tab open on your screen. 📺 Uninterrupted Streaming: Prevent YouTube, Twitch, and other players from automatically lowering video quality or buffering to "save resources" when backgrounded. 📉 Real-Time Data: Keep crypto charts, stock boards, and analytics dashboards updating live. No more socket disconnections or frozen graphs. 💼 Stay Logged In: Bypass aggressive "Away" timers on corporate web apps that log you out for inactivity. 🔒 Privacy First: This extension works 100% locally on your machine. It acts as middleware between your browser and the Page Visibility API. We do not track your history, data, or passwords. Get started in seconds: 1. Navigate to the site you want to keep awake. 2. Open the Trick Focus extension and enable it. 3. Switch tabs freely. The site will never know you left!
