The difference
How they work
Devices vs the browser
Freedom works across your devices and can block apps, which a browser extension can't. Fovely focuses on the browser, where most distractions sit between the things you actually need.
Block lists vs a goal
Freedom blocks what's on your lists for the length of a session. Fovely lets you keep a site open and hides the videos and pages on it that don't fit your goal.
Which one
Pick what fits
Freedom is the better choice if
- Your distractions are apps or your phone, not just the browser.
- You want one tool to block the same things on every device.
Fovely is the better choice if
- You need YouTube or other big sites for work and only want the distracting parts gone.
- You want to set a goal rather than maintain block lists.
- You want a free option for YouTube, and a lower price for everything else.
