FlowShield — Focus Timer & Distraction Blocker

Take control of your focus. FlowShield tracks your browser activity, blocks distracting sites during deep work sessions, and syncs everything to your FlowShield dashboard in real time.

🎯 Focus Sessions
Start a timed focus session from the toolbar popup. The badge counts down your remaining minutes so you always know where you stand — no need to open a tab.

🚫 Distraction Blocking
Define your distraction sites in your FlowShield preferences. When you visit one during an active session, the extension alerts you instantly and flags it on your dashboard.

📊 Activity Tracking
Every tab switch is logged and categorized (Work, Development, Social Media, Entertainment, and more). Your productivity patterns appear automatically in your analytics dashboard.

☁️ Cross-Device Sync
Sessions started on the desktop app or mobile app appear in the extension — and vice versa. One account, all your devices, one consistent picture of your focus time.

⚡ Lightweight & Private
No ads. No third-party data sharing. Activity data syncs only to your own FlowShield account. The extension uses minimal permissions and runs a lean service worker.
