Whiiteroom is a highly customizable deep work and focus workspace designed to eliminate distractions by allowing only specific permitted applications, websites, and YouTube channels/Playlists/Videos of your choice before starting a session while blocking everything else (No ads, No notifications, No distractions/ No worries) inside the session.

The Whiiteroom Chrome extension allows you to start open the desktop application(if downloaded) from you browser itself.

Yes, Whiiteroom features includes Custom countdown timers, and premium aesthetics tailored for Day and Night modes.

No. Whiiteroom is built with strict privacy-first architecture. All session data, blocked applications, and browser whitelist parameters are stored locally on your device.

No. Whiiteroom does not require an active internet connection to run focus sessions. However, you will need internet access to download updates, check your Pro status, or log in into your account. The core focus and block features work completely offline. (Note: These checks are brief, take only a few seconds, and are only required occasionally—such as once every few weeks to look for updates, or right after upgrading to verify your Pro status).

Whiiteroom offers three levels of session enforcement to fit your comfort level. If you prefer flexibility, you can select Relax Mode (allows you to exit anytime) or Friction Mode (requires you to complete a small task to earn your early exit). If you select Hardcore Mode, the active session is heavily protected. However, if you are in a real emergency, there are ways to exit (such as switching off your PC, opening developer tools, and running specific CMD commands to close Whiiteroom before restarting). Please see the tutorial for details.

No. Whiiteroom uses smart filtering. When you whitelist a specific educational YouTube channel, playlist, or video, Whiiteroom only loads that specific content. The homepage, search results, recommendations panel, and comments sections are completely blocked and hidden during an active session.

No. Whiiteroom is built to defend itself against bypass attempts. The browser extension cannot be disabled while a session is active, and the desktop application guards against uninstallation or force-quitting until your session timer officially runs out.

Yes. Whiiteroom's desktop application restricts access system-wide across all major browsers, ensuring you cannot bypass your whitelist by simply opening another web browser during an active session.

To ensure you are never accidentally locked out at an inconvenient time, Whiiteroom does not start active sessions automatically on a schedule. Instead, you can set up custom focus reminders. These reminders will nudge you to start a session when it's time to work, keeping you in full control.
