Once help you limit the time spent on distracting websites, encouraging focus, and mindfulness. Once lets you visit these websites once per hour. The timer starts when you close the tab of one of these websites and only applies it to the homepages.
Edit: Thanks for all the feedback and upvotes. I scheduled Once's post on PH yesterday before going to bed and completely forgot about it. I checked today between meetings, and I didn't expect it to blow up. Thank you all!
Hello Product Hunt,
I used the holidays to get back to coding and built a Chrome Extension called Once.
Once allows you to limit the time spent on distracting websites, encouraging focus, and mindfulness. Once lets you visit each distracting website only once per hour.
The timer starts when you close the tab of one of these websites and only applies it to the homepages. It works with websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, 9gag, and many others.
It's free and available on the Chrome Web Store.
Let me know what you think!
Thank you :)
A very nice idea. The problem is I waste most of my time on my phone, even when in front of the computer. I'm not sure if this can be made to work with apps as well, but it would be a killer.
@valentinradu3 while i was thinking of similar idea the last two weeks, i find myself wrong since i'm a computer guy , i don't use my phone a lot during the day (around 1h or less -> checking twitter or calling some friends) so i think it's a niche app
