It doesn’t mess up browsing safari like most of the other ones do! ### 5/5 — 分享复制链接 *2023-04-13, version 1.2* 失败 **Developer response:** 重新安装一下脚本，1.3适配了 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 根本用不了 *2026-02-04, version 5.0* 而且还是收费软件 ### 1/5 — useless *2025-11-21, version 1.3* No use, bad bad bad ### 1/5 — DON’T EXPECT A REFUND ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NO REFUNDS!! *2025-01-01, version 4.3* Any app that require you to download another app to work in conjunction with another is not a completed application instead it’s a way of selling false claims and shouldn’t be in the apple app store. how do we know if this app is using or selling our information to other companies instead of doing what it says it does. the app developer says you need to use Adguard or Adblocker for this to work I have Adguard and adguard works without this app this application claims to stop ad Scripts and The Brave Browser does a better job doing what this app claims. I don’t recommend this app to pay $5.00 for an app that has no reason to be in an app store. as it’s just bloatware not software. I have been programming for over 32 years and this application is my option is garbage. I under stand sometimes in order for example that if you are programming a weather app etc. sometime you need to use a weather map API with Python. But, that’s because you need python to locate the location and weather for specific origins. unlike this app, you need to use a complete additional ad blocking app with another Adblocking app. means this app is not full developed. and should not be deployed until it has been completed. I will be posting this on all social media outlets to show that this app is garbage. you could have just refunded the $5.00 instead you scammed me and now. I will be telling everyone that is app is garbage hope it was worth the $5.00 bucks ### 1/5 — False Claims Buyer Beware! DON’T EXPECT A REFUND *2024-12-21* Any app that require you to download another app to work in conjunction with another is not a completed application instead it’s a way of selling false claims and shouldn’t be in the apple app store. how do we know if this app is using or selling our information to other companies instead of doing what it says it does. the app developer says you need to use Adguard or Adblocker for this to work I have Adguard and adguard works without this app this application claims to stop ad Scripts and The Brave Browser does a better job doing what this app claims.

I will be telling everyone that is app is garbage hope it was worth the $5.00 bucks **Developer response:** Bro, you completely misunderstood what we meant, okay? First, what we meant is that you only need to import ad-blocking rules in AdGuard syntax into the Addons section to enable ad filtering in Safari. I never said you need to install the third-party AdGuard software. Please understand the difference and don’t make false accusations. Second, based on your feedback, we’ve decided to include commonly used rules in the next version. This way, users won’t have to input these rules manually. By the way, if you had joined our user group, we’ve already shared these rules there. Third, if you want a refund, you can simply request it through Apple’s official refund process. As developers, we have no say in your refund request and no authority to deny it—everything is decided by Apple. I don’t know if this is your first time buying an app from the App Store, but please don’t use your ignorance to insult us. We’ve been actively and patiently responding to your questions, but please also show respect for developers. We’re having this conversation on equal grounds. If you don’t like it, please don’t try to harm it. ### 1/5 — False Claims Application *2024-12-20, version 1.3* As a developer with 32 years of experience, I noticed a potential design flaw in this app. It claims to function as both an ad-blocker and a script manager, yet explicitly states that it requires external tools like AdGuard or another ad-blocking application to block ads effectively. From a developer’s perspective, this raises questions about its completeness and modularity. If the app markets itself as an ad-blocker, it should inherently provide that functionality without relying on third-party solutions. Integrating APIs to extend or enhance functionality is a common practice, but requiring them for core features suggests that the app may not be fully developed or designed as a standalone solution. If this app is merely a “script and ad-blocker helper,” its branding and communication should clarify that it works in tandem with external software. Otherwise, it’s misleading. A true ad-blocker would handle both script management and ad filtering internally, leveraging a combination of regex matching, DOM inspection, and request interception to provide seamless functionality. If the current setup truly requires third-party tools for ad-blocking, it may be worth reevaluating whether this app should integrate with or delegate to external tools explicitly in its design philosophy. A clear separation of concerns or a proper API-first approach could streamline this. What do you think? ### 1/5 — GARBAGE APP. *2024-12-12* while this is suppose to get ride of ads and scrips it does neither wasted money getting a refund. **Developer response:** Addons support ad filtering rules for both Adblock Plus and AdGuard. You need to import the rules yourself to enable the ad filtering feature. You can simply Google it to find the rules. ### 1/5 — Worked for 24hrs *2024-12-09* After purchased stopped working ### 1/5 — scripts adblocking and downloads sniffer all do not work anymore *2024-03-03* stopped working for about a month already.. please fix payed for pro ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-11-17, version 2.4* Couldn’t give it zero stars. It does nothing except pop up one line of Chinese symbols that you can’t translate, and that’s it. That’s the extension… yay ### 3/5 — wromate.io *2024-11-16* i need opne ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2026-04-23, version 5.0* Great ### 5/5 — 网页嗅探功能非常 nice *2026-04-16, version 5.0* very useful ### 5/5 — K *2026-02-25, version 5.0* Ok ### 5/5 — A better alternative to “stay” *2026-01-02* Been used “Stay” for a long time. Tried this one, half the size and faster web loading. Definitely a better alternative to “stay”! ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2025-07-02, version 4.6* Great for many reasons! ### 5/5 — wromate.io *2024-11-19, version 1.3* how to play this game ### 5/5 — 一切良好。 *2024-07-14* 目前来看运行良好。 可以自己写了脚本。safari的可用性大幅提高。 ### 5/5 — Big daddy *2024-06-02, version 3.5* Works very well ### 5/5 — SERIOUS BUG *2024-03-06, version 3.1* I love this app and I’m giving 5 stars to show support, but I have a serious bug on iOS 17.4 Dev Beta. If I clear Safari cookies&data, opening the extension in safari leads to a blank “no scripts matched” statement in Chinese instead of a visible UI. Tried clearing cache in the app, doesn’t help. If you can provide email I’m happy to help debug. ### 5/5 — iOS真爱份报道 *2024-02-09, version 1.0* 感谢开发Mac版👍 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
