Freedom and Cold Turkey Offer Two Very Different Paths to Productivity

Freedom and Cold Turkey are two of the most popular distraction-blocking tools, but they cater to different types of users.

Freedom focuses on flexibility and cross-device blocking, allowing users to block specific apps or the entire internet across phones, tablets, and computers. It also offers scheduled and recurring focus sessions, including a “Locked Mode” that prevents early exits.

Cold Turkey, by contrast, is built for strict accountability. Once a block starts, it cannot be stopped. Its most extreme setting can lock users out of their computers entirely, making it a go-to option for people who struggle to resist temptation.
