"Block and track Social Networks and games"

Overview

SprintWork Distraction Blocker is a package to track the usage of a computer and to block key actions that are distracting the user from getting more done. The intention behind the application is to provide effective parental control options for fathers and mothers who are concerned about what their kids are using the computer for and also as a control for what types of web sites, program and games can be accessed. The software can also be used in busy work environments as a control mechanism to prevent employees wasting time during the workday rather than staying focused on the task at hand. 

The software is set to block popular websites like Twitter, Facebook and some other social media sites, by default. There is an allow list, a block list, and an option to completely block all access to the internet so that the user is not interrupted by anything while they are trying to gets thing done. Web sites can be added to the white list in order to let them through the web site filtering process.

Settings can be configured to block applications, games or web sites based on a specific time of day, the day of the week or other choice.

Installation

The installation runs smoothly. A password needs to be set for the package and then re-confirmed. The software completes the installation process, then it asks whether to start the blocking and run the viewer.

No malicious software was added to during the setup process.

Interface

When starting the application each time it requires the password to access it. This makes the data collected more secure.

There are few menu options for things like Clean Up and Delete records. The toolbar includes monitoring options, blocking settings, password changes and other features.

A large pie chart can be shown in the center of the app once there is enough data collected on usage habits.

The interface is modern and attractive.

Pros

  • Block usage of programs, games and internet access to certain sites or all sites
  • Specify different times of the day or days of the week for blocking
  • Monitor active time vs idle time when the computer is on but not being used
  • View a pie chart for usage patterns
  • Password setup to block access to the application by unauthorized people

Cons

  • None.

Conclusion

SprintWork Distraction Blocker is useful program to limit access to or remove the distraction of different applications, games and web sites that can otherwise eat time.
