Allow Anchor in private windows

Chrome disables extensions in incognito by default, so your limits won't apply in private windows. It's a quick fix:

  1. Open a new tab and navigate to chrome://extensions
  2. Find Anchor and click Details
  3. Switch on Allow in Incognito

This screen disappears automatically once the setting is on.

      Step 1 of 5

      Which apps pull you in the most?

      Select everything that applies — or none at all.

      How much time per day feels healthy?

      This becomes the daily limit for the apps you chose.

      When do you struggle most?

      We'll add a suggested downtime window to your schedule based on your answer.

      Do you want to block adult content too?

      You can always change this later. Actual filtering is enabled once you install the extension.

      What's your main goal?

      No wrong answer — helps us show you something meaningful.

      How strict do you want your blocking to be?

      This controls how loosening changes work — raising a time limit, turning off a site, or deleting one. Changes that make things stricter are always instant. With Complete blocking, loosening changes are rejected entirely — the weekly emergency unlock (20 min) is your only way out.

      What should we call you?

      This is just for your dashboard.
