SelfControl

SelfControl is a handy little app that can really help if you struggle with procrastination and distractions. This powerful tool blocks all those tempting websites while you focus on your work.

Stay Focused with SelfControl

The cool part? Once you set a timer and kick off the block, there’s no turning back. Even if you restart your computer or try to delete the app, those distractions will still be blocked!

Simple Interface

The user interface of SelfControl is super easy to navigate. The main window features a slider bar that lets you choose how long you want to block those pesky sites—from just 15 minutes up to a whole day!

Edit Your Blacklist

You’ll also find an “Edit Blacklist” button in the bottom right corner. Click it, and you can add any URLs that are distracting you. After that, hit the Start button, and let SelfControl do its magic.

Quick Import Options

If you're not sure which sites to block, no worries! SelfControl comes with a list of common distracting news and social media sites. You can easily import these into your own blacklist with just one click.

Whitelist Feature

Another great feature is the whitelist option. This means you can block all sites except for those on your whitelist. Just remember, this will cut off access to almost everything else unless it's on your safe list.

A Must-Have Tool for Productivity

If you're serious about staying focused on your projects, SelfControl is a must-have. It stops access to those user-defined distracting sites or email notifications. And remember—the app won’t let you cancel until the timer runs out, even if you uninstall it!
