YouTube Shorts
Shelf, sidebar, search results, channel tabs. Shorts links open in the normal player — same video, no swipe.
UNDISTRACT surgically removes Shorts, Reels and TikTok from your browser — and shows you how much life you got back. Keep the platforms. Lose the slot machines. Free. No account. Nothing leaves your device.
Shelf, sidebar, search results, channel tabs. Shorts links open in the normal player — same video, no swipe.
Reels tab, feed reels, explore grid. Your DMs and friends stay.
The whole site. There is no non-short-form TikTok.
The reels rail and every /reel/ URL.
The video feed that somehow got into your work tool.
The video tab, if you want it gone. Off by default.
"Day 34 as a non-scroller. 61 hours bought back — that's 10 books." Honest estimates, milestone chapters, streaks, and a Wrapped-style card worth sharing. Blocking is the feature; the ledger is why you stay.
The escape hatch gets longer each time you use it, hardens in your danger hours, learns the hours you regret — and relaxes when you've earned trust. It always tells you why. Static pauses get tapped through; this one doesn't.
A friend holds your unlock key. They see when you bypass; in strict mode, turning anything off needs their OK. Anonymous — a pair code, no accounts. The only blocker you can't talk yourself out of at 1 a.m.
Set your exam date — JEE, NEET, UPSC, finals. Blocking ramps up as it nears, YouTube locks to your lecture channels only, and reclaimed time reads as mock tests. Built for study playlists that live one click from the feed.
Some "focus" extensions were caught selling browsing histories. Undistract can't — your stats live in your browser and nowhere else. No accounts, no servers, no telemetry.
Open devtools, watch the network tab. Zero requests carry your data. The only optional fetch is a plain config file that keeps blocking working when platforms redesign.
Export everything as JSON or wipe it permanently, any time, from settings. Uninstalling deletes all of it. That's the whole policy.
