Thank you for your review! I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the app not working properly. As a developer myself, I use this app every day, and I have confirmed that it works on Google, YouTube, Reddit, X (formerly Twitter), Amazon, Wikipedia, news websites, etc. Maybe some settings were not configured properly during initial setup. So if you are interested, please try the following steps: 1. First, please follow the setup steps properly as explained in the EmoGuard guide app. The app should be on your home screen or in your app library. If this resolves the problem, no further steps are required. 2. Go to the "Settings" app > "Safari" > "Extensions" > "EmoGuard - Keyword Blocker". Make sure "All Websites" is set to "Allow" under PERMISSIONS. 3. Open EmoGuard in Safari and please check whether the keyword you want to block is registered in the "Blocklist" tab. If the same keyword is registered in the "Whitelist" tab, the block will be cancelled. 4. Open EmoGuard on the website you want to block keywords and please make sure the power button icon is turned on. The icon should be blue. 5. If the target you want to block is an image or link, you can increase the probability of blocking by setting "Keyword detection sensitivity" to "High" on the options page. 6. If the problem persists, please reset the extension on the options page and try blocking again. This resets the CSS selector settings, so it may be important for the block to work. 7. If blocking still doesn't work, it may be that the website uses unusual HTML tags. In that case, users can freely add and customize CSS selectors to make blocking work.
