As a student, staying focused can be a challenge, especially with the temptation of endless browsing. BlockSite has been an incredible tool to help me stay on top of my studies. I can block specific websites during study sessions, which has improved my concentration immensely. Simple to use and effective

I struggled with staying on track with my work due to constant distractions from social media. This app helped me limit access to those sites during work hours and it made a noticeable difference. Great features and easy customization. Definitely worth a try if you need to reduce online distractions
