About
Do you get distracted by YouTube when you only wanted to listen to a podcast or music while working? YouTube Focus Radio is the ultimate productivity extension that helps you break the "scroll loop." It allows you to use YouTube as a background radio without getting sucked into the visual distractions. How it works: Whenever you start a video, a 60-second grace timer appears. Once it ends, a beautiful, non-intrusive overlay covers the video. You still hear the audio perfectly, but the visual "rabbit hole" is gone, replaced by a workspace focused on your goals. Key Features: 🚀 Visual Blocker: Keeps the audio playing but hides the video feed to prevent "doom-scrolling." ✅ Integrated To-Do List: Manage your tasks directly on the focus overlay. Write down what you're working on and check it off as you go. 🎧 Dedicated Audio Controls: Play/Pause, Rewind (-10s), and Fast-Forward (+10s) buttons built right into the overlay. ⚡ Playback Speed: Quickly switch between 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, and 2x speeds. 🚫 Shorts Blocker: Automatically blocks addictive YouTube Shorts to keep your focus sharp. ⏱️ Grace Period & Unlocks: Need to see something quickly? Use the "Unlock" buttons for a temporary 10s or 60s visual peek. 🌓 Modern Dark/Light UI: A sleek design that looks great and fits your workspace theme. 💡 Daily Motivation: Curated productivity quotes to keep you inspired while you work. Why choose YouTube Focus Radio? Standard blockers often cut you off from helpful content. We believe YouTube is a powerful tool for learning and focus – as long as you aren't watching it. YouTube Focus Radio gives you the audio you need and the focus you deserve. Stop watching. Start doing. Install YouTube Focus Radio today!
