  • Worth a Review

    Excellent app. Best ad and tracker blocker by far! It just works. I’ve had to check out their faqs/support page a couple of times on the rare occasion that a page doesn’t load correctly, but it’s extremely rare.

    I was also relieved that they took care of the customers that had purchased the app prior to them switching to a subscription model. I understand the need to change your business model at a certain point (Most app developers end up having to do that in order to keep the business running) but very few have cared enough about their early customers to ensure they keep getting the same features they originally paid for.

    All these reviewers complaining about the model switch have obviously done so without first checking the support page or contacting the developer directly.

    We are sad to hear that you've experienced this, but I can assure you that 1Blocker can't be used to cause such issues. Our app applies simple content-blocking filters in Safari without affecting the rest of your apps or the operating system itself, and 1Blocker is not linked to our users' personal information. Even though our app can protect you from certain cyberattacks, the principal goal of 1Blocker is to remove intrusive content (ads) and prevent sites & apps from tracking you online. The filters we use can highly improve your browsing experience and privacy, but they are not aimed at stopping targeted hacking attacks, at least in the current implementation of the tools we use. At the same time, we are always ready to look into any issues our users report, so please feel free to contact us at support@1blocker.com for more detailed help and support.
  • Unique Outstanding Design App!

    I have used this unique 5 Star app for many many years! In fact I can remember when the Name change on the App and slowly changed back to the current Name on the App. But I can contend know matter what the Name was the Outstanding App always worked for me it never never did fail me. The Developers have put a great deal of time sweat love and yes Hard Work on the coding of their Software. They surprise me when they added the Firewall protection which has always worked and been a success in a protected system that I as an ole man needed. I have been lucky thru my many years that I got to see Technology change so much and thanks to these Developers that I was going to use some of it! I truly truly appreciate and thank the Developers for all their hard work in keeping up with all the security concerns and corrections that needed to be made on this Software and that they did with all the updates that they did through out the years! So as an ole man I want to Tip my Hat 🎩 to you and say “ Thank’s “ for anyone who read this I Hope you will Download this and give it a try. I Don’t believe you will be disappointed or sorry! I can’t seemingly remember ever being disappointed by this App over the past years I have used it! Thanks

  • Outstanding

    I’ve been a "LifeTime" 1Blocker user for many years, and I forgot just how much I appreciated the app until I got a new iPhone and decided to set it as new (i.e., w/o transferring any data from the old one). So, for some time, I had to browse on the Internet without the 1Blocker installed/setup, and I did not realize how "filthy" 99% of the pages really had become over the years — to the extent they were illegible. All you see is pop-ups, ads, etc.
    So, I reinstalled 1Blocker in no time.
    Unlike what some other users have commented, I think the app has improved drastically over the years. In the past, I would see an ad or two popping up here and there. I haven’t noticed any unwanted content recently.

  • Great App and Support

    I originally got the free version, which allows you to use one component. I chose the Safari Ad Blocker. Worked great, but I was having an issue on one site. Used the contact-the-developer function, and they responded and were able to solve the problem for me. Was so pleased that I decided to give the paid version a try for at least a year, allowing me to add blocking for web trackers; and for in-app trackers (firewall). I don’t notice any slowdowns for the ad blocker. *Maybe* minimal *occasional* delays after enabling the other features. Highly recommend, for greatly enhanced privacy and great support. Also, everything is laid out nicely, and clear descriptions are provided for every element.

    (This review replaces a longer, more detailed, review I was just finishing, that went away when I got a second phone call. Didn’t want to restart from scratch.)

  • Best money spent.

    This app allows me, who likes to constantly go to sketchy websites. to get information I need for reports without the worry their tracking me. Even in my sleep it works, it blocked over 200 trackers in 10 minutes. It blocked all that while I was asleep, and after using 1Blocker I’ve noticed my phone running faster and using less power, leading to more battery life. I like how it even works for me when I don’t have service- so even if something’s still tracking me, waiting for service to finally send the data, it can’t. It has a firewall and a free “tracker blocker” just for safari. I highly recommend this and a app called IVerify. Both cost money but choose what’s worth more for you. Honestly, I’d say 1Blocker is. I use 1Blocker way more.

    I’m being fully transparent here, and a quick update.
    I’ve noticed one or twice randomly the firewall will stop and I’ll have to manually restart it. I’ll remove this edit whenever this is fixed or I stop seeing this.

  • Amazing Unique outstanding App!!

    This is truly a outstanding app and I truly thank the developers for an amazing system they have put together! I have used the other 1BLOCKER for 2 and a half years and for me have never never had a problem with it. About the time you think the app can’t get any better the developers pull out a better system! You can tell they have put a lot of time in to this new system and I am telling you download it today you will not be sorry!! As they have always said ( This is the only Add Blocker you will ever need! ) Thanks to a great app and a great team who took the time to not only put this together but in a special way for you myself and our family! The Firewall protection is unique and outstanding that’s added even more protection for your family and mine! So one last time Mr. Developer’s I truly truly Tip my Hat to you and say “ Thanks “ 🎩 Really ! “ it’s really a 5 Star ⭐️ App “

  • These people are on it

    I’ve been using 1Blocker since I got an iPhone. This app always gets updated, devs always answer you either through app or on twitter, and I never feel like it’s left a feature behind. It always does what it says on the tin. When there’s an issue; it gets fixed. Cannot recommend it enough, drop the blockers with weird subscribe to filter list systems, don’t drain your battery for power hungry useless features in the background you’ll never need. The firewall on this works great.
    Honestly if you think you need more protection than you had better be working for the government, be a spy in a foreign nation, or have a paranoia disorder.
