Description

Hide distractions on any website (YouTube, Instagram, Reddit, etc.), and take back control of your attention!

Viking Focus (formerly known as 'MindShield') is a browser extension for Safari we built to help ourselves be less distracted online.

It lets you hide distracting elements on any website, with pre-configured options for YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Reddit, Google Search, and WhatsApp Web. For example, on YouTube you might want to hide recommended videos, on Facebook you might hide the newsfeed and ads in the sidebar, and on Google Search you might want to hide or highligt ads.

You have full control over what is hidden. Simply click the extension icon in the browser toolbar to select elements to hide, and save your preferred settings. To help hold yourself accountable, you can also add a delay time to change the settings.

Everywhere you go on the internet, something tries to grab your attention. This extension gives you back control. Enjoy!
