We’ve all been in a position where we want to get away from websites that distract us. Entertaining yourself using online media has never been this easy before, but there will be times when you will feel like working but get easily distracted by a particular website.

In this article, to get rid of distracting websites, let’s look at how to block websites on Android using third-party apps like BlockSite.

9. One of the caveats of using BlockSite is that you can only block nine websites and apps in total. Anything beyond that, you’ll need to buy the premium version. There are three plans to choose from–monthly, yearly, and unlimited. We’d suggest you buy the latter, worth around eight dollars.

The premium version has other perks like no ads, blocking one word, and password protection.

This is how you can block websites on Android. Many apps can do the same, but BlockSite is, by far, one of the best apps on the Play Store. If you’re interested in discovering great apps, here’s an article from us that may help you.
