About

Tired of opening LinkedIn to update your profile, only to lose 20 minutes scrolling the feed? LinkedIn Focus Guard helps you stay in control of your attention.

When you land on LinkedIn’s home page, the extension gently asks:

“What did you come here for?”

Work – hides the newsfeed and right-hand distractions, but keeps your profile, navigation, and “Start a post” composer visible.

Read – shows the full feed so you can catch up on posts.

Features:

Distraction-free Work mode – no endless feed, no side clutter.

Quick toggle – switch between Work and Read any time via the bottom-left button.

Automatic prompt – every time you visit LinkedIn’s home page, you choose your intent before the feed appears.

Lightweight & fast – no tracking, no data collection, just focus.

Why use it?
LinkedIn is a powerful tool — but its feed is designed to keep you scrolling. Focus Guard helps you use LinkedIn with purpose, whether you’re networking, applying for jobs, or sharing content.
