Description
Gently redirect distracting sites toward places you chose on purpose. Good Detour puts an intentional step between a familiar distraction and what you would rather do next. Create a simple rule such as tiktok.com → apnews.com, choose a short pause page or a direct redirect, and change or disable it whenever you like. Good Detour validates URLs, prevents redirect loops, and lets you export your configuration for backup. Privacy is part of the feature: rules stay on one browser unless you opt in to Chrome Sync, and pause counts always stay local. There is no developer account, browsing-history upload, advertising SDK, or hidden tracking. Features: • Domain-first setup with friendly URL suggestions. • Optional calm pause page with your own message and timer. • Direct redirects when you do not want an intermediate page. • Per-rule and global pause controls. • Import/export backup and redirect-loop prevention. • A 20-detour safety cap for the initial release. • Optional Chrome Sync for rules and pause-page preferences. • In-extension feedback and bug-report links with privacy-safe submission guidance. • Direct controls to delete the Chrome Sync copy or reset Good Detour data on the current browser. • Site access requested only when you add that site.
