The verdict

Blocking a site on your laptop does nothing when your phone is right there. Freedom runs 1 session across your Mac, iPhone, iPad, Windows PC and Android phone at once, and the free plan already syncs those blocks to unlimited devices. Schedules and a Locked Mode you can't end early need Premium at $39.99 a year, and Cold Turkey is stricter on a computer for $45 once.
