About FocusTube: No YT Distractions
You did not mean to lose another afternoon to YouTube, it just happens Now it's time to take back control of YouTube. Every time you open YouTube, FocusTube asks what you are here for. Then it tracks the session and nudges you the moment you drift off it. It does not just block YouTube. You keep the good stuff and lose the rest: no Shorts, no recommendations, no endless scroll. You are not relying on willpower. You are relying on a system that holds you to what you said. What you get: - Session intent, so you watch with purpose from the start - AI classification that learns what matters to you - Nudges that escalate when you drift, not when you're focused - Focus windows, daily limits, Shorts blocking - Hide recommendations, comments and distractions - Channel blocking - Settings you can lock, so you can't loosen them in a weak moment - A dashboard showing exactly where your time went Start with a free trial.
