Stop doomscrolling. Mindful blocker for TikTok and YouTube Shorts. Hit your limit, solve a puzzle to earn time back. Stop doomscrolling without the willpower fight. BlockTok is a mindful website blocker for the sites that keep pulling you back in. Set your focus hours, choose a watch-time allowance, and add the domains you want BlockTok to watch. When you go over your limit, BlockTok adds a calm pause instead of a harsh lockout. No guilt trips. No streaks. No account. Just a gentle interruption and two honest paths back: solve a quick puzzle to earn more time, or save the tab for later so the link is not lost. HOW IT WORKS BlockTok tracks time on the sites you choose, during the hours you choose. When your allowance runs out inside a rolling time window, the tab pauses with a friendly screen instead of a wall of shame. You get two paths: 1. Earn more time. Solve a quick mini puzzle and return to your original URL with more allowed time. 2. Save it for later. Close the tab and keep the link in your Saved Tabs list so you can come back after your focus session. That is the whole loop. BlockTok is designed to lower friction around focus, not remove your autonomy. FEATURES • Block any site you want. Add or remove watched domains at any time. • Set your focus hours. BlockTok only steps in during the schedule you choose. Outside those hours, it stays out of your way. • Watch-time allowance. Choose how much time is okay before BlockTok asks you to pause. • Rolling time window. Old watch time drops off naturally, so you are back under your limit after a real break. • Short unlock puzzles. BlockTok rotates through quick puzzle types like sliding tiles, memory patterns, word unscramble, quick math, color tap, and pattern matching. • Saved Tabs page. Keep paused links for later and reopen them when you are ready. • One-hour pause. Need BlockTok out of the way for a bit? Pause it from the popup. • Live status popup. Check your current allowance, focus-hours state, saved tabs, and pause status from the extension popup. • Privacy focused. BlockTok does not require an account, subscription, or analytics. WHO IT IS FOR • People who lose focus to endless feeds, short videos, forums, or distracting websites. • Students and knowledge workers who want a blocker that feels calm instead of punitive. • Anyone who wants a small moment of friction before continuing a distracting session. • People who prefer gentle guardrails over hard browser lockouts. WHAT BLOCKTOK DOES NOT DO • It does not modify individual feeds inside websites. BlockTok works at the site level. • It is not a hardcore lockout tool. There is always a path back through a puzzle or temporary pause. • It does not require an account or subscription. PRIVACY BlockTok is designed to run locally in your browser. It uses Chrome permissions for tabs, storage, and alarms: • tabs: to check the active tab’s domain. • storage: to save your settings, watch-time history, unlock state, and Saved Tabs list. • alarms: to run periodic timing checks. BlockTok does not require an account and does not include analytics or telemetry.
