  • Lets say I have a pending task for today and try to access facebook

    • I should be redirected to the block page

      

    • You can choose to go back to tasks page and accept the block

    • Else you can choose to keep procrastinating. In this case you should tell a reason on why do you want to do that

      

    • You will be redirected to the site you were trying to procrastinate and a timer will be shown on the extension displaying how many minutes you have until the site will be blocked again. It is a "procrastination session".
