Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 40 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Many customers find the application exceptionally useful for curbing distractions and staying focused, highlighting its effectiveness in promoting productivity and healthy online habits. The customer service is consistently praised for being responsive, helpful, and friendly, with many appreciating the prompt resolution of queries and issues. People also commend the staff for their dedication to improving the software, often incorporating feature requests and fixing bugs quickly. However, some customers also noted that the app can be buggy, experiencing issues like freezing, crashing, or not applying blocking plans correctly, particularly on certain operating systems like Mac OSX Sonoma. A few other people also felt that the app's layout can be complicated to understand initially, and the forced mode feature, while effective, can be inflexible when quick adjustments are needed.

Great customer support!

Great customer support! I've been using this for years, and I've always had the best interactions whenever I've needed help with any features.

More generally, I find the product *extremely* useful for keeping me productive.

Useful product, great cost, and great service

I've used FocusMe for years to help me, and I decided to use it for some parental control on my middle schooler's laptop. Support helped me figure out how to do that and it's working great now!

Training my discipline day by day

I have just started with this app a week ago and wow- I thought 'I don't need one of those - I'll manage my own discipline' but no- I 'did' need help. There are times when the sensible part of my brain has great intentions, followed by the obsessive compulsive part of my brain changing the intention - for those times - this app works for me 100%. I set an intention - literally set it in FocusMe... and I then have to follow through. Once you set the app on force mode, you cannot stop it. This feature is so good for me because I 'would' turn it off otherwise. I just wish there was an app like this for my diet, my budget, my whole life lol...But overall- it 'is' training my discipline muscles too - so I think it really will help me all round. I love it

Unique Site Blocking Focus Software that Works!

FocusMe is the only software I've tried that can reliably block websites and apps for periods of time. It's very easy to adjust to block sites for time periods from 15 minutes to months or years if you want. If you are a procrastinator, you know it's easy to get around a lot of methods like blocking sites through your browser and so forth. The customer service team is very responsive and helpful too if you have any questions or need to stop a blocking plan.

Helpful if your addicted to your screen and self control isnt enough

Indulging too much in entertainement on screens, it was affecting my life in many levels. I tried to manage this by myself, but eventually I realised I lacked the self control. This really helped me.
Plus you can customize your plan, you can add websites to the forbidden list WHILE your plan is active, you can set an uninstall protection to make sure you dont get rid of the software in a moment of weakness...

FocusMe is Protected From Bypassing

I love how protected the software is. With many website blockers, there are ways around them. However, FocusMe has predicted many possible escape routes, which I love, being that I am tech savvy.

Good product and good value

Good product that is robust about helping you focus. Takes a bit of time to get it set up exactly for what you may need but worth the investment - though default time plans will probably work for most people. When I needed to contact support they were very responsive and helpful.

Great tool, but statistics page needs improvement

Great tool for making you more productive! Curbed my need to surf the internet for hours.

The statistic page to view your time spend has unfortunately some bugs!

My best investment on me with Focus.me

Truly, focus.me has made a significant difference in both my work and personal life. I consider this tool one of the best investments I've made to date. Thanks to its usage, I was able to complete substantial projects at work, elevating my efficiency to levels I'd never reached before.

In the past, I was easily distracted by reading or watching anime, and it wasn't easy to resist the temptation. However, focus.me has entirely changed the landscape. With its smart technology, my screen shuts off automatically, eliminating the need for conscious effort to avoid distractions. It is a definitive solution for any individual or company looking to increase their productivity.

I cannot overlook their exceptional customer service. In my experience, the communication was seamless and I received assistance in less than an hour. They truly are an incredible team offering constant support.

My heartfelt thanks to focus.me for its existence. With great anticipation, I hope they continue to expand and provide us with their invaluable support for much more time. Keep up the excellent work!

FocusMe is an essencial software if you feel you are getting too much distracted by the internet

I've been using FocusMe for some years now and ,in my perspective, it's just the best website blocker and focus app there is.
Nowadays it's so easy to get distracted on the internet and FocusMe provides many ways for you to put some obstacles between you and these distractions.
I can honestly say that this software is totally worth it and that it made a huge difference on my life.
Not only that, but the support is also great!

great product and top class service

Focusme is a great product that gets the job done but more importantly their service is top class. I have been in communication with their support team many times and they always answer quickly and provide top notch assistance. Lorenz has helped me many times, he is a 10/10. Ryan and others are very good as well.

For the price they charge it is easily worth it.
