We recommend “Toggl Track” for their interface and better free plan. It also has a much more pleasant looking interface. While both extensions offer much more services in their premium plan, we feel that Toggl’s free plan is superior to Rescue Time’s free plan, with more features such as idle detection and so on. These two options may be preferable to those who may not want to completely block off access to certain websites and would like a bit more control.
The premium version for this extension also offers much more services such as reports and insights to visually represent the data. “Toggl Track” works similarly to “RescueTime” with a stopwatch inbuilt to help you track the time you spend on your projects online, to capture how productive you’ve been! “Toggle Track” is integrated with over a hundred different apps to allow for more convenient tracking. Toggl Track Producitvity & Time Tracker extension’s interface displaying the numerous features offeredįor the Mozilla Firefox browser, consider “ Toggl Track: Productivity & Time Tracker”! RescueTime for Google Chrome / Toggl Track: Productivity & Time Trackerfor Mozilla Firefox While the “YouTube™ Productivity Mode” does what it claims to do very well, “Just Read”’s potential and applicability across a wider range of platforms gives it the edge over the “YouTube™ Productivity Mode”. It’s a fantastic way to focus only on the task at hand. “Just Read” does an incredible job in abstracting the text to remove all distracting visuals across a wide range of websites. With this extension, you would be less tempted to click on unrelated videos and instead, stay focused on your work! By switching to “Productivity Mode”, it automatically blurs thumbnails on Youtube that are designed to grab your attention and distract you from work. The YouTube™ Productivity Mode extension exists with the goal to reduce visual triggers on the screen. The Youtube productivity mode extension blurring out thumbnailsįor the Mozilla Firefox browser, look out for the “ YouTube™ Productivity Mode” extension! “SessionBuddy” allows you to sort these tabs by grouping them under a common tab! For example, you could have a tab that contains all your social media, a tab that contains all your work, and a tab that contains all other miscellaneous websites! An additional feature of this extension is that it gives you the ability to save the tabs that you’ve been using, even in case of a crash! This was a very useful tool that saved me so much time recovering all my tabs when my computer unexpectedly shut down. Moreover, it incorporates the ability to organize tabs by topics! To illustrate, while you’re researching a topic, you may have tabs open from multiple different backgrounds. “ SessionBuddy” helps you to organize all your tabs into one single list! This was a great help to me when researching topics as I had almost 30 tabs open and was able to simply look down the list to find the article I was looking for. Session Buddy’s interface with the tabs saved under Productive WebsitesĮver found yourself opening up additional tabs to look for more information? Suddenly you have 10-20 tabs open and you can’t remember the specific tab you were looking for! Well, we have a solution for you! SessionBuddy for Google Chrome/ Tab Session Manager for Mozilla Firefox We feel that the visual tree element from “Forest” does a great job in preventing you from visiting those pesky distracting websites! “Forest” has a very engaging visual element that tugs at you to stay productive or risk seeing your hard work wither up like the tree when you press “give up”. However, the ability to do more with the trees and to get greater feedback is locked behind a premium feature that requires one to pay. It’s an amazing way to visualize one’s productivity and to give a second thought before visiting distracting websites. If one chooses to give up, the tree that they have been growing will be killed. Visiting a “blacklisted” website will result in a black-screen popping up with the option to “give up”. While the “Forest” extension is active, a virtual tree starts growing as long as one is being productive and only doing work by using websites that are whitelisted. “ Forest” is an incredible extension for Google Chrome that allows users to customize certain websites to “blacklist” (restricted from viewing) or “whitelist” (allowed for work). Want to get motivated while doing work? Why not plant a virtual tree? The Forest extension presents you the dilemma of killing your tree when you press “give up” to go onto a “distracting website”
