Profiles: Making It All About You

The big star of Focus 2 is something called Profiles. It lets you make different lists of things you want to block, so you can focus on different parts of your life. When you're at work, school, or home, or need quiet, Profiles lets you pick the right setting.

With Profiles, you can set up schedules that run on their own. You can even stack them for different profiles. Focus 2 gives you lots of control. And to make sure you stay focused, you can lock your schedules and protect your Profiles with a password.
