About

Many people find themselves wasting time on the internet and utilizing it in unproductive ways. Studies have shown that when you limit the time you spend on social networking and other websites, you'll end up getting more done.

Once allows you to limit the time spent on distracting websites, encouraging focus, and mindfulness. Once lets you visit these websites once an hour. The timer starts when you close the tab of one of these websites and only applies it to the homepages. It works with websites such as Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), Reddit, and many others.

Love your work, not your distractions. Become more productive and stop wasting time on distracting websites with Once.
