Frequently Asked Questions about Layn

Does Layn actually block websites or just remind me they're blocked?

Layn blocks distracting sites until your focus session ends; you cannot access them during the timer. The tab lock feature prevents you from navigating to blocked URLs, so it is a hard block rather than a warning or reminder system.

Can I use Layn on multiple devices with the free version?

The free version works on one device. The Pro plan costs $3.99 as a one-time payment and covers two devices with lifetime updates included, so you do not pay per year or per additional device beyond that pair.

Does the ambient glow bar show on every tab or just the active one?

The glow bar appears across every tab simultaneously, so you see your session timer draining no matter which tab you are on. This means you stay aware of your focus session without needing to check a separate window or extension icon.

Can I customize the timer intervals or does Layn use fixed Pomodoro lengths?

Layn lets you set custom durations for focus sessions, breaks, and long breaks, so you can adapt the timer to your personal workflow instead of using standard 25-minute intervals. This flexibility makes it work for different task types and individual working styles.
