## What is BrowserKit?

BrowserKit: The All-in-One Safari Utility Suite

Why settle for a single-purpose extension when you can have a complete browser toolkit? BrowserKit unifies essential Safari enhancements into one powerful dashboard, giving you total control over how the web looks, feels, and treats your data.

The BrowserKit Utility Belt:

Multi-Engine Content Blocking: Not just one blocker, but six specialized modules (Ads, Privacy, Annoyances, Social, Security, and Custom) working in tandem to clean up your web view.

The Intelligence Dashboard: Monitor your protection status, track filter updates, and manage your rule budgets across all categories from a single source of truth.

Instant-Toggle Web Extension: Gain a dedicated toolbar command center. One click toggles site-specific settings, giving you instant flexibility without leaving your tab.

Automated Maintenance: Integrated background scheduling keeps your utility kit sharp. BrowserKit silently updates its logic and filters daily so your browser is always at peak performance.

Privacy First, By Design: As a native utility, BrowserKit operates entirely on-device. We don’t just protect your privacy from the web; we protect it from us. Zero data collection, zero server-side processing.

Built for the Apple Pro:

BrowserKit is engineered specifically for the Apple ecosystem. It leverages Xcode 16 technology to deliver a unified experience across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Whether you're reclaiming screen real estate on mobile or hardening your security on desktop, BrowserKit is the only Safari utility you’ll ever need.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-05-18

This is BrowserKit's biggest update since launch.

  FLOATING PAGE CONTROLS
  A small compass icon now appears on every webpage. Tap it to toggle per-site controls without
  leaving the page:
  • Dark mode — inverts colour on sites that don't support it
  • Focus mode — hides YouTube recommendations, Twitter trends, Reddit sidebars, and LinkedIn clutter
  • Video speed — slow down or speed up any video with − and + buttons
  • Remove sticky headers — unsticks navigation bars so you get the full screen back
  • Block autoplay — pauses videos and audio the moment they load
  • Restore copy & right-click — re-enables text selection on sites that block it
  • Block notification prompts — auto-denies permission requests before they appear
  Settings are saved per site, so your preferences carry over every visit.

  NEW SETTINGS TAB
  Every feature now has a dedicated on/off toggle with a plain-English explanation of what it does.
  Turn off the floating button, disable iCloud sync, control privacy tools individually — all in one
  place, no hunting required.

  PRIVACY TOOLS
  Three silent background tools run on every page:
  • Tracking link cleaner — removes ?utm_source=, fbclid=, and other ad tags from URLs
  • Force secure connections — upgrades http:// to https:// automatically
  • Referrer suppression — hides which page sent you to a site

  BLOCKING STATS & WIDGETS
  See how many pages BrowserKit has protected today, this session, and all time. Add a home screen or
   lock screen widget to keep the count visible at a glance.

  SIRI SHORTCUTS & FOCUS FILTER
  Ask Siri to "Update BrowserKit filters" or "Block a site." Connect BrowserKit to any Focus mode in
  Settings — the distraction blocker activates automatically when Work or Study mode turns on.

  REDIRECT RULES
  Navigate to Google Maps and BrowserKit opens Apple Maps instead. Turn on the Reddit redirect to
  always get the classic layout. Add your own domain redirects in Settings → URL Redirects.

  DISTRACTION BLOCKER
  Add any domain to Blocked Sites in Settings and Safari will refuse to load it. Useful for social
  media during focus hours. One tap to unblock.
