主な違い

Blocking Strength

FocusMe integrates deeply with your browsers and applications for highly robust blocking — no browser extension needed and it works across all browsers automatically. Freedom’s desktop app handles most blocking, though a browser extension improves the experience. FocusMe’s Enforced Mode with random password and stop delay protection is extremely difficult to circumvent.

Screen Breaks & Pause Protection

FocusMe includes enforced screen breaks — a full-screen overlay that locks your computer at regular intervals to protect your eyes and prevent burnout. Skip protection ensures you actually rest by requiring a minimum break time and a challenge to skip early. Pause limits cap how many times per day you can pause a plan and for how long. Freedom does not include break timers or pause management.

Offline Protection

FocusMe works entirely offline. Freedom requires an internet connection for session sync and starting new sessions, though active blocks may persist offline.

AI-Powered Coaching

FocusMe’s built-in AI Coach analyzes your daily computer usage and delivers personalized productivity reports. It identifies patterns like burnout risk and generates actionable recommendations you can apply with one click. Freedom does not offer AI coaching.

Where Freedom Wins

Freedom offers iOS対応 そして cross-device sync — if you need blocking on iPhone/iPad or want sessions synced across all your devices, Freedom is the better choice. Freedom also has a cleaner onboarding experience for users who want simple, session-based blocking.

よくある質問

Is FocusMe better than Freedom?

FocusMe is better for users who need strong, bypass-resistant blocking with enforced screen breaks, AI coaching, pause limits, and offline protection. Freedom is better if you need iOS support or cross-device sync. FocusMe offers more granular control while Freedom is simpler to set up.

Can I bypass FocusMe like I can Freedom?

FocusMe’s Enforced Mode is significantly harder to bypass than Freedom. FocusMe integrates deeply with browsers and apps, offers random character challenges, stop delays, and additional protection layers that make bypassing extremely difficult.

Does Freedom work offline?

Freedom requires an internet connection for session sync and starting new sessions. Active blocks may persist offline, but reliability varies. FocusMe works entirely offline, making it more reliable for users who might try disconnecting from the internet to bypass their blocker.

How does FocusMe’s pricing compare to Freedom?

Freedom offers a cheaper annual plan, but you get what you pay for — FocusMe includes enforced screen breaks, AI coaching, CLI automation, pause limits, and many more features Freedom simply doesn’t have. FocusMe also offers a longer free trial (14 days vs Freedom’s 7) and a 60-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it completely risk-free. We also provide world-class customer support.
