Focus Mode is a free Chrome extension developed by Tej that aims to help users stay focused while using YouTube. As many of us have experienced, it can be easy to get distracted by unrelated content while researching or learning on YouTube. This extension provides a solution by allowing users to filter out recommendations that are not relevant to their current content.

When using Focus Mode on the YouTube homepage, it hides all tags except for the search bar. By default, the extension is turned off, allowing users to see their usual home feed with recommendations. However, when the toggle is turned on, only the search bar is displayed, eliminating distractions and focusing solely on search functionality.

On the video page, Focus Mode hides the recommendations while still showing the video and comments section. This ensures a distraction-free viewing experience, especially for those with ADHD.

Overall, Focus Mode is a useful tool for anyone looking to enhance their productivity on YouTube. With its toggle button, users have the flexibility to enable or disable the extension based on their needs, allowing them to easily switch between a focused and a more casual browsing experience.
