One Switch: Productivity App

Limit distractions, boost productivity with One Switch, an open-source software designed to help you control access to apps & websites negatively impacting well-being.

What is One Switch?

One Switch is an open-source application developed by Freedom.to that aims to help users regain control over their digital lives. It allows creating customized schedules and restrictions for websites and apps that negatively impact productivity, lead to procrastination, or harm overall well-being.

The software works by blocking access to selected sites and apps during set times or for set durations per day. Users can choose to block entire categories of websites, like social media, or specific domains. One Switch runs quietly in the background once configured and does not require any further input from the user.

Key features of One Switch include:

• Block websites by category, like gaming, social media, news, or shopping
• Set access schedules and time limits for blocking
• Whitelist essential sites that should always be accessible
• Prevent uninstalling the app without a password
• Get insights into browsing habits with usage analytics

One Switch aims to help people better focus their attention, stop mindless browsing, reduce distractions, and promote healthier technology use. While free for personal use, the software also offers paid organizational plans to install One Switch across entire teams or companies.
