  • Phenomenal replacement for UBlock Origin

    Like many I was bummed when UBlock Origin got pulled. I tired 1BlockerX but the dev screwed over the user base by sunsetting the “legacy” app and going to a subscription or $40 price tag.

    Great extension, and much better to use native Safari website setting to disable content blockers rather than an app. Super light, super nice.

  • Excellent App!!

    5 stars only.
    Deserves 10 stars and if I could I would give it 10.

    App is awesome. Just the content no more scrolling through miles of garbage. Worth the small amount of money and what I’ve seen with the App I would have paid more with no complaints.

    Excellent App and Awesome job for creating a much needed ad blocker.

    Nice to see “ We have noticed you have a content blocker on. If you want the fullness of this site please consider turning it on “.
    Ha ha no thank you.

    One very happy customer.

  • Must have

    Does what it says. Add DUCK DUCK GO . Add NORDVPN. Now Tim Cook is protecting the people from the usual suspects.....it is a “Wonderful Life,” surfing the Web.
    PS every now and again I donate some small change, ie beer money. Remember nothing comes from no where. It takes talent and dedication. Wanna be free.....just take the first step !

    What a hidden gem! At first it didn’t work. Safari ads are still popping as heck, but after sometime, or rather after updating the app for for a few times, it just suddenly worked. No more annoying ads.
  • A++

    Does everything it says it does, seamlessly. It’s initial activation is about the easiest thing I’ve ever had to do to get an app up and running. And, since activating it, I’ve quite literally had to do nothing to keep my webpages neat and clean - since Wipr does all that for me in the background - out of sight and out of mind.

  • Highly recommended! Are use on my MacBook Air, iPhone, and iPad

    I’ve tried many contact blockers. This one is the best. It respects your privacy and doesn’t read anything from your browser window – for example usernames and passwords etc. I use this on all of my Mac products and I’m very happy that the developer is keeping it up-to-date with iOS 14.
  • Stopped working

    It worked for about 12 hours. Woke up and it’s stuck on trying to download updates. Says please check internet connection.

    Update: come to find out it will not update the list if on cellular. I connected it to my WiFi and it updated fine. Maybe a bug?

    Another update: does not update over cellular. Only WiFi. So if I close the app completely and have to reopen it I better hope I’m on WiFi in order for it to clear the update message. Deleted app.

  • The best ad blocker - won’t try to charge you every time

    Pay once, and use easy list ad blockers that are updated frequently whenever new updates come out. Wipr is hands down the best out of all The ad blockers. Very minimal, set it and leave it. The best part (unlike other ad blockers) the developer is not implementing a forced subscription service for more money, instead you are given the opportunity to donate in a monthly bases

  • This works very well!

    I’ve been using many other content blockers; some that did more than I need, and some that don’t get updated regularly enough for sites not to break.

    I don’t feel the need to keep looking after using this app. In-app updates for the content filters twice a week - plus it focuses on removing ads and protecting my privacy.

    One thing I would like to see is some text indicating the last time the rules were successfully updated so I can be sure it’s working in the background.

  • The best one

    Lots of ad trackers out there for iOS, most of them don’t work and a lot of the ones that do charge your first born as a yearly sub cost. This is a one time charge (plus tip if you’re feeling frisky) and it works fantastic, set up is a breeze and it hasn’t slowed down my browsing at all.
