Block any chosen application from access to the internet

It would be a good feature to be able to block the applications that you choose from access to the internet. This would be helpful in the situations where you have an app based web browser or access to internet through another application, that is not controlled by FocusMe or other blocking methods very effectively. You would still be able to access the internet through the web based browser/s (i.e. Firefox, Chrome, etc.) that is controlled by FocusMe, and yet also have the ability to choose to limit or block the app based web browser from access to internet. This will stop unfiltered/unlimited internet browsing through the app based browser that is currently not controlled by FocusMe. I am sure there are other benefits as well. Also, it would be very useful to have the ability to have this feature be password protected should you desire. Thanks.

    Look there is a simple solution for your problem make a new plan and set it as time-limited then move to the applications section and choose to add app then choose to add your own then choose window title and type the exact name of the app-based-browser window (ex: Facebook) it will count until you spend the full time you set before then the app-based-browser get blocked immediately.

    also, you can add the site’s URL in the same plan and choose block network it will block access to the site at a network level.
