With 1Focus, you can block distracting websites to stay focused and get things done. Block YouTube, social media, Netflix, and adult sites for example.
Steps (3 minutes):
- Download 1Focus on the Mac App Store.
- Open 1Focus. You can reopen the 1Focus window by clicking its arrow icon in the top right of your screen.
- Click the + button under Blocked Websites.
- Enter the website to block and confirm with the Enter key (⏎).
- Start blocking.
Done! Tip: You can block a website yet make an exception for specific page or section. You can also block website categories or block URL keywords.
Troubleshooting
- Schedule blocking.
- Add multiple presets.
- Use a supported web browser.
- Grant permission to block websites.
- Use a blocking duration of 6 hours or less. Durations longer than 6 hours require 1Focus Pro.
- Restart your computer.
- Uninstall 1Focus, permanently delete it from the Trash (important), and reinstall it from the Mac App Store. No data is lost.
- Optional: Prevent bypassing blocking.
