My Browsing Habits Extension

Have you ever gone down a youtube rabbit hole? How much time did that really take out of your day? Curious about how many purchases you made online this month? Can't remember the name of that recipe you used the other day?

My Browsing Habits monitors your web surfing activities automatically, keeping you accountable for how you spend your time. Each activity can be tracked in a customizable manner offering a unique experience for each user.

This extension...
✅ Tracks website visits and time spent on user-defined urls
✅ Automatically logs the number and duration of videos watched
✅ Counts the number of articles read
✅ Saves each recipe visited
✅ Detects any payment with the associated payment amount

With this data the user can
✅ Display trends in an interactive fashion
✅ Compare the data between different activities
✅ Export data and graphs

Unlike other Time Tracking or Browser activity monitoring application, My Browsing Habits can automatically detect very specific user activities and lets users come back and go through their data (video titles, recipe names, article titles,... ) and explore trends in various ways.

With other features such as our calendar view which allows the user to visualize their data for a given day or the various data graphing tools implemented, users can easily spot their browsing trends and simply look back at their monthly data.
Along with our predefined templates, users can create their own tracking events and log data in a centralized application. These manual inputs can then also be compared with other activities tracked automatically.


With the 3 free activities you can begin tracking your browsing right away! And for as little as 0.75$ a month, you can upgrade to the pro subscription and enjoy unlimited activity tracking. The subscription also gives you access to other features such as exporting/importing app data, exporting graph data, and access to full app settings.

My Browsing Habits is privacy-conscious; all of your data remains securely stored on your own device.
For any issues or requests for new features please do not hesitate to contact me


Planned updates:

⏳ Enable limits - once a limit is reached we can display a warning on even block the content (Videos, Website visits)
⏳ Monthly reports - Show different trends of the different activities you are tracking.
