Unable to be compatible with adblockers

I have an extension that is used to block youtube ads on safari called Wipr Extra. If I enable Wipr Extra and APF it wont work the video player will bug out and the captions button and the theater button and the other buttons wont work. Please make a update to fix this it used to work last week probably because youtube made an update.

Use for more than profanity

I have since moved to text to speech to have web pages read to me. However the novels that I read use multiple different symbols as separators and the reader pronounces ever special character like “+++++++++++++”. It is very annoying to have the voice say plusplusplusplus… I now have the repeating characters replaced.

BEAUTIFUL

this app works so perfectly~~ but 1 question, does this work with other apps besides safari?

Troubleshooting

First, thank you for making an app that will filter language from movies. That said, I am experiencing an issue. I am attempting to mirror a movie that I am watching on my iPad. It seems to play fine until I get to a filtered word, then it gets stuck in a loop there and will not go forward. Any suggestions?

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words! I haven't specifically tested with mirroring, but I also don't see a problem with it either. Which site(s) have you tried it on? Does it behave the same when not mirroring your screen? I tried it on YouTube and didn't see the behavior you are describing, but each site can behave differently, so it may depend on where you are watching. If you can get me more details I'm happy to look into it and hopefully we can resolve the issue. For faster support, feel free to reach out over email: support@frostco.dev.

Waste

Tried everything but does not work on safari. Will change rating if someone can fix it.
