Rekt User Reviews

Top reviews

Dev fixed all my prior issues

UPDATE: The developer reached out and said he was aware of the new issues with Reddit and I can verify the new update works perfectly again!

Response from developer

Hey there! The NSFW issue has now been fixed. The app was stuck in review for a bit causing the delay. Please let me know if you’re facing any other issue!

Worth Every Penny to Nuke the Google Widget Banner!

I detest the Google widget banner on the bottom of every search page. I’ve tried other “fixes” and blockers without success. This works. I’ll say it again:

THIS WORKS! All the other stuff it does is a sweet, sweet bonus. Great app and thank you!!

Sometimes freezes up safari

Blocks the open app banner but I have noticed that occasionally it will prevent you from scrolling or clicking any links. I have found a work around by opening and closing the drop down menu in the top right.

Response from developer

Reddit, unfortunately, does not let you view subreddits if you’re not logged in. It simply shows a dummy background so there’s nothing Rekt can do here to unblock it, sorry.

Currently covers up Twitter share sheet

No specific issues I’ve noticed in my usage except that I can’t share a tweet via the share sheet on twitter without disabling the extension.

Response from developer

Thank you for the bug report. Will investigate and have an update out as soon as I can. Thanks again for buying Rekt! I appreciate it. :)

Garbage

I got this to block websites from asking me to use their App. However, I still get those pop-ups for many sites. I’m not sure if every website has to be manually added, but regardless it does make more to be desired. Additionally, I use Google News and still get AMP URLs instead of the site’s URL. I’ll update my review someday when this App actually does what I paid for it to do. Get AMPlosion instead and Unsmartifier, they’re both way better and actually work. And to the developer, yes it was all setup correctly with all of the correct permissions. You may have 1,000s of happy users, but let’s not forget you posted on Reddit and have many away. I’m a user who is telling you it doesn’t work and therefore I’m not happy. AMPlosion works flawlessly.

Response from developer

Hey there! Thanks for the feedback. Can you please confirm Rekt has been enabled and has been given the required permissions? We have a few thousand happy users at the moment and the initial setup always seems to cause the most confusion. I’ll try to make the setup process more friendly and with more instruction in the future. Thanks for the feedback again.

Doesn’t work

Save your money

Response from developer

Sorry you feel this way, mate. If you could give me more information on what’s broken, I can try fixing it. :)

Doesn’t work

Login popup blocked on instagram but the scroll lock still prevents browsing.

Response from developer

Sorry about the experience. Instagram runs A/B tests to show you different banners most of the times and it’s likely a new banner type is tripping Rekt up. I’ll have an update ready to fix this soon.
