Has anyone here tried accountability or monitoring software to reduce distractions and stay productive online? I’m curious if it actually works in real life or if it’s just another unused app.
I’ve used a few focus apps that block distracting sites, and they definitely help during busy workdays. The tricky part is consistency, it’s easy to just turn them off. Pairing them with routines, like timed breaks and exercise, makes the software more effective in the long run.
For example, during exam season I set stricter limits and made sure my family knew I was using the software, which helped me take it more seriously. The transparency can feel strange at first, but over time you get used to it. When I was researching different options, I noticed people sharing their experiences in places like Ever Accountable reviews, which gave me perspective. Not every tool fits everyone, but reading others’ feedback helps you make smarter choices.
