You will constantly get pop ups from the app that say safari is at risk, even after “turning on”/“applying” Blockify to Safari. There’s no way to confirm that this is actually working. And ads on websites still pop up ### 1/5 — The fact that it is behind a paywall is disgusting and not worth downloading *2022-06-21, version 1.4* Avoid this app at all costs. It’s not worth the download and they want you to subscribe meaning monthly charges. Don’t do it. This is a scam ### 1/5 — You have to pay for everything *2022-04-27, version 1.4* Just make the app $50 ### 2/5 — Ads are still getting through *2022-02-27, version 1.4* I tested blockify on several websites that I knew, for a fact, had ads. And some of the websites I tested, the ads were still getting through. Because of this, I see no reason to continue my three day trial. I will be canceling the trial and uninstalling the app. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2022-01-02, version 1.4* App forces you to subscribe (with a 3 day trial!) to even access the app. Deleted & downloaded a different one. ### 1/5 — Blockify *2021-12-21, version 1.4* They did not advertise to pay anything until I clicked on the subscribe button. Then it said .99 a month (which is not a lot, it’s just the principle of the ad! It needs to show the amount of it up front like some of the other do. ### 1/5 — No.... *2020-08-05, version 1.3.3* This app is not worth 11.99 per week. It doesn’t even work that well. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2020-07-09, version 1.1* 11.49 a week is ridiculous. What dummy is paying over $500 a year. ### 1/5 — OVERPRICED *2020-07-09, version 1.1* $11.49 A WEEK?!?!?! I COULD BUY MYSELF A TACO BELL MEAL WITH THAT ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Бесполезный *2025-06-06, version 1.4* Ерунда. Еще и деньги списали за пустышку эту. Абсолютно ничего не блокирует, все банеры, все рекламные ролики , все назойливые рекламные вывески — на месте. ### 1/5 — No sirve. *2025-02-27, version 1.4* Cero estrellas se merecen, no sirve para nada en iPhone 15 pro Max con iOS 18.3.1 ### 1/5 — I don’t work *2025-01-06, version 1.4* To put it simply all the ads still went straight through ### 1/5 — Malware *2024-01-22, version 1.4* This app is basically akin to malware. Avoid. ### 1/5 — Good luck *2023-10-11, version 1.4* This app has not removed one ad, not one. It deserves no stars!So disappointed ### 1/5 — Doesn’t block ads don’t waste your money *2023-01-07, version 1.4* I downloaded this app a few weeks ago when it offered a 7 day trial it worked great but once it came to me having to pay all of the ads that’s supposed to block shows I know it’s only a $1 but it’s not worth it. ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2022-12-30, version 1.4* I’ve downloaded it and realised you have to pay for a subscription at the start. There is a free trial but who wants a free trial? And the audacity to make it only 3 days. I suggest removing the subscription or making this adblocker a pro version and making a free version. Based on my experience I think that you should make it suggest the subscription instead of make you have to pay for it. Nobody wants a 3 day free trial then have to pay. Atleast make it 1 month or a free trial. And also actually make the adblocker work. It barely works at all and doesn’t block any ads ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-12-03, version 1.4* This scam extension doesn’t block a single ad. Please remove it from App Store ### 1/5 — Скам на подписки *2022-10-20, version 1.4* Адблокер рабочий, но ничем не лучше бесплатных аналогов. После триальной подписки тихо без уведомлений переводят на подписку платную. Это легально, но крайне некрасиво. Я в итоге оплатил подписку за сервис которым не пользовался и не буду из-за невнимательности к датам. Очень жаль что есть приложения для которых такое основной источник дохода Ссылка на сайт тех поддержки не работает что ещё раз подтверждает схему работы ### 1/5 — Ad Blocker that doesn’t block ads? *2022-10-17, version 1.4* Thankfully, there was a 3 day free-trial for me to learn that it’s absolutely useless and didn’t spend any money on it. Doesn’t block ads whatsoever. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Admin *2025-09-14, version 1.4* Microsoft Windows ### 5/5 — Thanks *2022-10-17, version 1.4* This app is very good and useful ### 5/5 — I like *2022-04-05, version 1.4* I’ve been using it for a while now, and I like it. So far it’s my favorite adblocker app. ### 5/5 — Support *2022-03-10, version 1.4* I love it ### 5/5 — Fly high *2022-02-07, version 1.4* Thanksgiving ### 5/5 — Increíble *2020-07-26, version 1.3* Realmente funciona y es muy buena ### 5/5 — Good! *2020-07-06, version 1.1* Worked better than most I’ve tried ### 5/5 — Really helpful *2020-07-02, version 1.0* Actually worked...I tried a bunch of these and this one was by far the best ### 4/5 — Good but *2021-12-08, version 1.4* I don’t understand the notification thing that comes up saying my device is at risk tap here and it only brings up the app. I don’t understand what’s it’s really doing. ### 2/5 — Advertising *2022-09-28, version 1.4* I’m still getting popups after activation --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
