Distract Break: A Time Management Chrome Extension
Distract Break is a simple timer extension for Chrome that aims to help users manage their time more effectively by minimizing distractions. The program allows users to create a list of their most common distractions and ensures that the timer only increments if more time is spent on distractions than on productive tasks.
One of the standout features of Distract Break is the interruption alert that is triggered every time the distraction counter reaches its maximum limit. This alert serves as a reminder to users to refocus their attention and discourages prolonged periods of wasted time.
The extension offers modifiable timer attributes, allowing users to customize the timer according to their preferences. It also provides the option to import and export blacklist site lists, enabling users to easily manage their list of distractions. Additionally, the timer automatically decrements after periods of inactivity, ensuring that time is not wasted when the user is not online.
In the future, Distract Break plans to introduce new features such as syncing blacklists across devices, localizations for different languages, various types of timer alerts, an improved user interface, indicators for banned sites, bug fixes, and user-suggested features. With these anticipated updates, Distract Break aims to become a comprehensive time management tool.
