  Focus Mode transforms Chrome into a minimalist workspace to help you enter a state of deep concentration. With a single keyboard shortcut, the extension hides tabs, the address bar, and bookmarks, leaving only your current page—nothing to distract you. Ideal for writing, coding, studying, or deep work. 🧑‍💻
  
  Beyond its minimalist full-screen mode, Focus Mode includes all the tools you need to stay focused: a Pomodoro timer with auto-cycle, an ambient sound mixer, a blocker for distracting sites, quick note-taking, and stats tracking to measure your progress. 📈
  
  Features:
  
  - Instant Focus Mode — Hides tabs, the address bar, and bookmarks with a shortcut (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + F)
  - Pomodoro Timer — Focus sessions / short breaks / long breaks with automatic cycling
  - Ambient Sounds — 7 mixable sounds (rain, fire, coffee, waves, forest, white noise, brown noise)
  - Site Blocker — Automatically blocks distracting sites during your sessions
  - Quick Note — Jot down a thought without breaking your concentration (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + N)
  - Intentions — Set your goal before each session to stay on track
  - Statistics & badges — Daily tracking, streaks, levels, and activity heatmap
  - Favorite sites — Quick access to your work pages
  - 10 languages — English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Turkish, Hindi, Sinhala, Tamil
  - 100% local — No data is sent to servers, no account required
  - Focus Pro — One-time payment of $4.99 to unlock all advanced features (no subscription required)

  Turn any web page into a distraction-free workspace—with one keyboard shortcut.
  
  Focus Mode hides tabs, the address bar, and bookmarks instantly. Your current page is alone on screen, like an app inside Chrome. Press Esc, and everything's back exactly where you left it. Made for writers, students, researchers, coders, and anyone whose browser has become their workplace.
  
  "Finally, a way to actually focus on a single article without twenty other tabs staring me in the face."
  — Jaime Bolton, Chrome Web Store review
