About

Pause Before Social helps you better control time spent on social media by showing a short pause with a countdown timer before a social media site opens.

This brief pause gives you a moment to decide whether you really want to open the site, helping reduce mindless scrolling and improve time awareness.

How it works:
     - Displays a short pause before opening selected social media websites
     - Shows a simple countdown timer
     - Encourages mindful browsing and better time control
     - Works automatically once enabled
     - Lightweight and unobtrusive

Why use Pause Before Social:
Social media is often opened out of habit. Pause Before Social introduces a small moment of reflection, helping you make more intentional decisions and reduce unnecessary browsing.
