Description
ADHD-friendly website blocker. Pause YouTube, Reddit & social media. Focus timer, distraction blocker & streak tracking. Free tier. Most website blockers fail ADHD brains. They're too harsh, too easy to bypass, and often create frustration instead of focus. ImpulsePause takes a different approach — a mindful "speed bump" between you and distracting websites, giving your brain just enough friction to break the impulse loop before it starts. Built specifically for ADHD brains. Not a hard blocker. A pause. ─── HOW IT WORKS ─── When you open YouTube, Reddit, Instagram, or any site on your list, ImpulsePause intercepts the visit with a pause and asks: "What are you here for?" That small interruption is enough to break autopilot mode and redirect your focus where it matters. ─── KEY FEATURES ─── - Impulse Speed Bump — 5s pause on free; 8s on Pro, giving you more time to reconsider - Focus Timer — run timed focus sessions directly from your new tab page, no setup needed - AI Task Breakdown — turn vague tasks into concrete steps so you know exactly what to do next (PRO) - Scheduled Focus Blocks — set recurring weekly reminders to start focusing at specific times - Streak Tracking — build momentum with daily focus streaks and milestone moments - Pattern Insights — see when and why your focus breaks down, with weekly stop-pattern summaries (PRO) - Daily Check-in — optional evening nudge showing how many sessions you completed (PRO) - Custom Site List — block any website, not just the presets (PRO) - Time Allowances — set a per-site minute budget before the speed bump kicks in (PRO) - Snooze Mode — intentionally allow access for a set period when you genuinely need it (PRO) - Focus Lock — lock yourself in during active sessions so distractions stay out (PRO) - Stop Reflection — if you end a session early, a one-tap prompt captures why — no guilt, just data ─── PERFECT FOR ─── → Adults and students with ADHD or attention difficulties → Anyone who opens Twitter/Reddit/YouTube by reflex without meaning to → Remote workers who struggle with self-directed focus → People who've tried hard blockers but found them too rigid ─── WHY NOT JUST BLOCK SITES? ─── Hard blockers create resentment and workarounds. ImpulsePause works with your brain, not against it. The speed bump creates awareness without frustration — the same principle used in cognitive behavioral therapy for impulse control. ─── SITES SUPPORTED ─── Works with YouTube, Reddit, Instagram, and dozens of other distracting sites — plus any custom URL you add (PRO). ─── PRIVACY ─── No accounts required to start.

Focus sessions and streaks are stored locally. ─── PRICING ─── Free tier available — no credit card required. 14-day free trial included — full Pro access, no payment info needed to start.
