Eh
It works, except for the problem that Safari has a button on the blocked page that says “Reload Without Content Blockers” that makes using this app/extension worthless. You would have to have the best impulse control in the world to use this, and in that case you wouldn’t need a web blocker to begin with.
This means you can browse to a blocked site and bypass the block within 1 second by clicking on a button. The web blocker that’s supposed to cause friction and make you re-evaluate your decision to go on a blocked site doesn’t have any friction at all. It’s just one click on a button right in front of your face.
I’m mad that it wasn’t even mentioned anywhere that this would be the case or else I wouldn’t have even bought this. It’s $5 down the drain as far as I’m concerned.

Great, simple and effective
Blockaclious is a great, straightforward and effective app. It’s simple to set up, works reliably, and does an excellent job of blocking unwanted websites. It’s exactly what I needed.
The November 2025 update is really strong too! Smoother performance and cleaner design. A brilliant update to an already useful extension.

good
does what i wanted, which is block websites of choice without a bunch of other cruft.
I simply LOVE it!!!
No data collection.
No meddling with child/parent nonsense.
No “trying to stay in focus” … (like someone blaming the other App for “I lack self-control but this app makes it too easy for me to turn the access back on” 🤦🏻♂️).
Just blocking a site(s) that I have no interest in visiting ever, but “offered” by search engines’ advertising all the time!!
Thank you, man!!! Great addon.
It is free too - as a free-choice should be!!!
Will be glad to donate/pay for it.

Domain entries are a bit finiky. Otherwise great
Overall the app is solid. However, the domain entry has to have the correct prefix otherwise it may not get blocked. In my case i had to add 'www.' before the website name for it to work. I originally tried 'http://website.com' and 'https://website.com' and just 'website.com' and those didn't get blocked as i could still access 'website.com'. Also is there no way to delete a domain entry? Not a big deal but would be nice to have for sure.

Perfect
Simple and works great! Spent a lot of time searching to find this app.
Actually wut I needed
Perfect extension for me since so many sites have an annoying thing where they open a new tab with some kinda random sus website that keeps redirecting you over and over with a ton of weird stuff.
Simple and Effective!
It does exactly what it is advertised to do - it’s incredibly easy to use.
Amazing App
I really like this app very much! This is amazing simple app that helped me to avoid distructions!
THANKS!
THANKS!
Best website blocker
This has got to be the best website blocker I've ever used! No cost, and it's extremely effective. No bugs either!
However, I think there could be the option to turn all websites on/off at same time. Also, as a person that goes to lots of distracting websites, I think a keyboard shortcut for the ' ' button would be nice.
But it's still great!

No subscription but not perfect
Free, so thats nice. I just started using it. Doesn't work for yahoo.com
-Works on others.
I'd pay money (not a subscription though) if would work on all websites.

Already great, but it could be a tad bit better (hence four stars)
The only issue i have: I'm a keyboard-guy and use shortcuts a lot. I open this app, am able to tab my way to the website I want to temporarily enable/disable, but pressing spacebar just activates/deactivates the tick-icon in the list - but it does not trigger the same activate/deactivate event that a mouse click does. If that is being implemented, I'll dive straight to a 5-star rating too.
Anyway, this app is a real productivity saver and I never thought I'd appreciate it as much as I do. love it.
Kudos to the developer so far!

Super simple and works
Super simple extension that does exactly what I hoped it would do, on macOS & iOS.
Exactly Perfect
Does what it says with no hidden costs or unnecessary features. A beautifully simple application. Thank you.
