Version 1.7.1
Released 7 Aug 2026 - 74.84 kBWorks with firefox 140.0 and later, android 142.0 and laterFirefox can quietly drop a site permission (the per site toggle in the extensions panel does it without a word), and without the grant the blocking layer never loads while the popup still works, which is the worst way for a self control tool to fail. The extension now watches its grants: losing one puts a red ! on the toolbar badge and a Restore button in the popup that asks for it back. Also, loosening a setting now asks one question instead of two, the same flat toll as the unblock gate.Source code released under GNU General Public Licence v3.0 only

Version 1.7.0
Released 6 Aug 2026 - 73.46 kBWorks with firefox 140.0 and later, android 142.0 and laterThe extension now runs on Firefox for Android: same battery, same sync code, so the phone's browser and the desk drain one charge. The popup and settings fit a phone screen, and the charge badge stays a desktop thing, since Android has no toolbar to put it on. Instead, opening a tracked site now shows the time left in the corner for a moment, on every device; settings can turn it off. Also carries the sync fixes since 1.6.0: a settings save only touches what actually changed, so it can no longer overwrite another device's choices with a stale copy.Source code released under GNU General Public Licence v3.0 only
Version 1.6.0
Released 30 Jul 2026 - 70.72 kBWorks with firefox 140.0 and laterHour rules: set windows that block sites, exempt them from the battery, slow or stop
the charging, or lower the capacity. Sites can also be blocked outright from
settings, and any block can be opened for five minutes through the question gate.
The gate itself is flat now: an unblock always asks one question, a settings change
always two, because a predictable toll gets paid and an escalating one invites the
off switch. Rule windows follow the clock on your wall on every device, and a long
list of small edge cases around sync, clocks, and the block overlay got fixed on
the way.Source code released under GNU General Public Licence v3.0 only
