Common Questions

Does it work on all websites?

OwlFocus is compatible with most modern, dynamic websites. However, for security reasons, it does not run on browser internal pages (like Chrome Settings) or restricted system pages.

Is my data safe?

Absolutely. We follow a "Privacy First" philosophy. OwlFocus does not collect, sell, or transmit any personal data. It works entirely within your browser environment.

What are the default shortcuts?

You can toggle the extension with Alt+Shift+F and toggle the Focus Line with Alt+Shift+L. These can be fully customized in the settings menu.
