FocusMe vs Freedom vs other app/website blockers? - beulahwarren - 05-10-2024

What are your experiences of using these? I'm a student and procrastination is a big problem for me. I like how these can be used on my phone and laptop.

I'm a bit nervous about some plug-ins and privacy (I presume that since you pay for the first two services that they're better in this regard, but that is probably very naive/ ignorant!). If there are trustworthy free resources that would be great! TIA!

Hello there! 

We understand how difficult it is if you're used to procrastinate - we were once in that same spot. One thing we can promise you, FocusMe can help you focus and finish your tasks beforehand. If your concern are digital distractions, we got you! As for privacy, plug-ins or anything along those lines?

Normally I quite like working with laptops. The running effects are also smooth. Your question is really relevant because there are many students who want to study it more Scratch Games

Known for its high level of customization, FocusMe offers features like scheduled blocks, Pomodoro timers, and task-based restrictions. It allows you to block specific apps, websites, or even the entire internet, and you can customize the rules based on your productivity needs. The interface is user-friendly, but it might be a bit complex for beginners due to its advanced features.
