Focus Shield: Block Shorts & Track Time

Reclaim your attention. Build healthier digital habits — without quitting the internet.

Focus Shield is a next-generation productivity extension designed for real-world use. Instead of blocking entire websites, it removes the addictive parts — feeds, infinite scroll, Shorts, Reels, comments — while leaving the useful parts intact.

Whether you're studying, working, or trying to break scrolling habits, Focus Shield helps you stay intentional online, track your usage patterns, and regain control of your time.

🚧 Designed to Stop Doomscrolling — Not the Internet

Most blockers simply lock you out. Focus Shield goes deeper and smarter.

1. YouTube ✔ Hide Home recommendations ✔ Remove Shorts tab + redirect Shorts to normal videos ✔ Hide comments, sidebar suggestions & rabbit holes

2. Instagram ✔ Hide the feed ✔ Remove Reels & Stories

3. Facebook ✔ Remove News Feed, Reels, and Stories

4. TikTok ✔ Hide the “For You” infinite feed and comments
