Multitasking is a myth. A little friction and a little enforcement go a long way in retaining focus.
Friction Tab replaces the default new tab page with a lightweight focus prompt that helps users commit to one task at a time. When a user opens a new tab, they set a single “mission” (short, actionable text). While that mission is in progress, the extension prevents adding another one, which reduces context switching and task hopping. The goal is simple: one clear intention, one clear next action. Friction Tab also sends reminder notifications so users check whether they are still on task. From the notification (or directly in the tab UI), users can: ✅ mark the mission complete, or 🚀 continue and get another reminder interval. The first reminder is user-configurable (1–10 minutes, default 5), making it flexible for different work styles. Follow-up reminders adapt based on user feedback to stay helpful without becoming noisy. Why you should install it: ➡️ Cuts multitasking drift: only one active mission at a time. ➡️ Creates accountability: every new tab becomes a quick “what am I doing right now?” checkpoint. ➡️ Minimal overhead: fast input, simple controls, no complex project setup. ➡️ Local-first privacy: mission and reminder state are stored locally in Chrome storage (no account required). ➡️ Practical focus loop: reminder notifications + quick completion actions keep momentum going. Friction Tab is ideal for students, developers, writers, knowledge workers, or just about anyone who wants a simple, low-friction but effective way to stay focused during the day. Friction Tab is licensed under the MIT license. The full implementation code base can be found linked at the homepage URL.
