Real blocking
Sites are blocked by Safari itself before they load, using Safari's content-blocking rules, not a page that's easy to dismiss.
All apps
WebsiteBlock
Block the distractions. Keep the internet.
WebsiteBlock blocks or redirects the sites that steal your time in Safari, on a timer, on a weekly schedule or for good, on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Features
Take back your focus in Safari.
Redirect, don't just block
Send a distracting site somewhere useful instead, like your notes or your to-do list.
Timers
Block a site for the next 30 minutes or the rest of the day. When the time is up, it opens again by itself.
Weekly schedules
Block social media during work hours, news before breakfast or anything overnight. Schedules follow your time zone.
Precise matching
Choose whether a rule covers subdomains. The most specific rule wins, so you can allow one site and block the rest of its domain.
Nothing leaves your device
No browsing history, no analytics, no third-party code. The extension never reads the pages you visit.

Contact supportDoes it block other browsers or apps?
No. WebsiteBlock is a focus tool for Safari. Other browsers and apps are not affected.
How do I turn it on?
Enable the WebsiteBlock extension in Safari's settings and allow it on all websites. The app walks you through each step on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Can it see what I browse?
No. Blocking rules are handed to Safari, which applies them. WebsiteBlock never sees the pages you visit and keeps no history.
Will a timer end exactly on time?
Very close. Safari decides when extensions run, so a change can take effect a moment later if Safari or the device was asleep.
