ColorPause is a menu-bar app for macOS. It turns the websites and Mac apps you choose black and white once you reach limits you set: minutes or opens per hour or day, active hours, and days off.

What's different:

- Only the window showing a listed site or app goes gray. Everything else stays in color.

- Works in Safari and Chrome with no browser extension. You can list Mac apps too, like Slack or Discord.

- It doesn't cut you off. A hard block feels like punishment, so people switch it off. ColorPause leaves the site open and takes the color away, so the interest fades.

- Press ⌃⌥⌘A to add whatever is in front, or right-click an app in Finder.

What you browse never leaves your Mac. No account, no analytics.

Free for 14 days, no card. Then one payment: $29 for 1 Mac until November 10 (then $39). macOS 14 or later.
