  • Highly Recommended!

    Saw a lot of people on Reddit and here recommending this app and decided why not try it and it’s great! Definitely worth the purchase. Does exactly what it says, very easy install and then you never have to worry about ads again. $2 is a very fair price. Thank you devs!
  • It’s made browsing way cooler (literally)

    My phone was heating up when I browsed the web and I was getting annoying ‘interruptions’, now my phone runs cool and pages load faster.
  • Quite Simply..THIS DOES NOT WORK :-/

    When you see such a high ratings and consistently positive reviews, you would expect the app to live up to the hype or in this case, one simple basic function. All this app has to do - is block ads - and it does not or cannot do that - at all. I would love to know what websites these positive reviewers are using because they couldn’t using ones plagued by any modern ad-tech which is indeed pesky but not impossible to defeat. uBlock Origin is hands down the best ad blocker of all time. I actually want my $2 back :-/

  • Superb blocker. Exactly as advertised (pun intended). Too powerful for me.

    Frequently and lovingly updated Easy Privacy block list, just as advertised. If you want an ad blocker, or if you want to avoid user (your) tracking, then unequivocally, THIS IS IT! Superb in all ways.

    Unfortunately for puny old me, I can’t handle the strength of its protection and find I must often disable then re-enable the filter for my important stuff (medical, financial, legal…) so I have decided it is far more important for my efficient work simply to remove it, devil be ******.

  • Awesome 👍

    Last update now works almost perfect. As far as content blockers go, this is by far at the top of the pile. Been using AdGuard for the longest time and now I use it as my backup to Wipr as Wipr is lighter and faster than AdGuard.

    Crossing my fingers the Mac version works just as well. Thanks!
  • Working

    My original review: “Perhaps I am missing something, but I followed the instructions for how to enable the extension in safari permissions. Restarted safari, still seeing ads everywhere.”

    Now I refreshed Wipr and it’s working great on Safari on a news website with aggressive ads.
  • Install...

    ...and forget. A great content blocker that actually works, doesn’t interfere with videos, and clears the page of all blank spaces left behind by ads. And it’s all for free! Make sure to support this developer by donating a “tip” through the app!
  • HIDDEN GEM ON APP STORE

    This is by far the best-performing Adblock on iOS. I have tested most of the popular ones on the store and none have worked quite as smoothly with as small as a performance impact as Wipr.

    Load times are lightening fast and even ads in 3rd party apps that use the Safari backend are blocked (I.e. Reddit and the like).

  • Not working anymore

    Stopped working properly since iOS 15 and the new Wipr Extra updates. Website just don't load anymore, it's like safari isn't even detecting an internet connection! When I switch Wipr off, it's all working again...
  • My fave out of them all

    ✅privacy-conscious
    ✅works well, never breaks
    ❤️‍🩹need to open the “app” now and then to ensure iOS does not stop it from auto-updating (maybe the developer could send a reminder alert once a week to keep the app “alive”?)
