How do I manually disable Focus?

Focus takes extreme care to only block your Internet when you want—but if it's broken and you need to manually disable it, go to System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Proxies -> Uncheck Automatic Proxy Configuration. If you have a browser extension installed, uninstall it.

Can I start Focus from the command line?

Yes. See scripting documentation for more information.

Does Focus read any of my traffic?

No. Focus does block your traffic, but everything is self contained on your computer.

Does Focus work on HTTPS?

Yes! Focus blocks HTTPS sites and works 100% as expected on Safari and Chrome. On Firefox an extension is needed to make quotes work on HTTPS.

Why isn't Focus working in Firefox?

Firefox has a way to override the system-wide proxy which can sometimes cause problems. To fix this go to Firefox, Preferences, Advanced, Network, Settings and change the selected option to "Use system proxy setting"
