Description
Hide distractions on websites such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, LinkedIn, Gmail and take back control of your attention!
While we acknowledge the distracting and engrossing nature of these sites, completely blocking them is not always feasible due to the valuable content they offer.
This Safari extension allows you to selectively hide attention-grabbing components on each site. For instance, on YouTube, you have the option to conceal recommended videos, shorts, comments, and more. Similarly, on Facebook and Instagram, you can hide the feed, reels, stories, and other elements. The same goes for each supported site.
Furthermore, SocialFocus offers an array of supplementary features, including Startup Settings, Import / Export and more.
Users who want to support the development of the project can additionally subscribe to the PRO version. The PRO version will give access to some additional features that are not available in the standard version, such as hotkey configuration, settings synchronization and some others.
NOTE: This extension does NOT work with the apps, it works only for websites while using the Safari browser.

Ratings and Reviews
TikTok enquiry
I love this app, and it is amazing for stopping myself from going on instagram reels. However I would love a browser extension for TikTok, because I use it’s search bar to find videos on specific books I’m reading to feel inspired, but the for you page is really distracting and sometimes things can pop up on it that are really upsetting.
Blocks the addictive parts
Great app. I tried blocking Reddit but found that when I searched for a question on Google, my answers often lay within Reddit, which meant that I either had to search elsewhere, or turn off my content blocker, opening up the avenue of mindless consumption.
This app lets me keep feeds and the addictive parts blocked, but still let me access posts that are shared with my on iMessage, or found via Google.
Phone is now just as useful, but much less addictive. Yes I can quickly delete this app or disable the extension if I really wanted to, but it still gives me a pause - a buffer of sorts to evaluate whether that’s a decision I want to do or my dopamine addicted mind wants.
No complaints. Thank you for making this.
Does the job but...
The YouTube settings suggest 'Hide Subscription' which seems not to work and this will really people who did or going to download it certainly to block the distracting contents
