Habit Breaker Extension

Stay focused and productive while browsing the web with Habit Breaker, a Chrome extension designed to empower users to take control of their online habits.

Inspired by “The Power of Habit” by Charles Duhigg, Habit Breaker offers a solution to combat endless scrolling and distractions by placing accountability in the user’s hands to promote mindful browsing habits.

Upon installation, users gain access to a simple yet effective tool for managing site frequency.

Key features include:
- Monitoring and tracking of frequently visited distracting sites, like YouTube or X
- Continuous prompting for users to cite reasons for visiting a site
- Storage of reasons, or “flits,” with associated timestamps for reflection of browsing habits
- Effortless addition and removal of monitored sites
- Flexible options to clear individual or all recorded flits from the list

With Habit Breaker, users can become more mindful of their time spent online and develop a healthier relationship with the internet and productivity.
