Browser Extension

The browser extension works together with the desktop app to block distracting websites during focus sessions.

Supported Browsers

Chrome
Firefox
Edge
Brave

Installation

1

Download from your browser's extension store

Search for "Nurrow" or visit the link from the download page.

2

Grant permissions

The extension needs permission to read and modify web pages to block sites.

3

Make sure the desktop app is running

The extension syncs your blocklist from the desktop app.

How It Works

  • Syncs your blocklist automatically from the desktop app
  • Replaces blocked pages with a focus reminder showing your session timer
  • Works completely offline after initial sync

Desktop App Required

The browser extension requires the Nurrow desktop app to be running to sync your blocklist. The extension alone cannot block sites.
